Does she inspire confidence? No. Rudd was even worse. Remember up in the Queensland floods? He was helping people move stuff out of their flooding houses. That's right, instead of being a leader, he was more concerned with trying to look like a "good Aussie knock around bloke", wasting time on tasks that would be far better left to others.
Obama is even worse again! When he went to Ireland, for example, he was too busy cracking jokes and trying to have everyone think he's cool, like some angst-ridden teenager. When will he grow up into an adult? Confidence is not created by speaking confident-sounding words and smirking at the camera. It is created (or destroyed) by who you are. And when he behaves like a teenager, he's making everyone very nervous. What's the result? We're seeing it now.
Then you have Jintao, probably one of the most corrupt, despotic, cruel bast.ards in the "wannabe wetern" world.
Most leaders have no clue about leadership. Most of them speak confidence while quaking in their boots, hoping desperately that no one is noticing how desperate to hang onto control. ****, where the hell are the real leaders??????
Yes, that vision of Mr Rudd bravely wading through the flood waters with a suitcase on his head, camera crews at the ready, will live forever in my mind as amongst the most nauseating stunts ever.Does she inspire confidence?

Agree. I'd be happy to see either Paul Keating or John Howard back in charge.Most leaders have no clue about leadership.

THE recent federal budget should be applauded on two counts: for its first steps towards spending restraint and for its investment in productive capacity, especially skills development, which will help us take full benefit from our lucky position as a major supplier to developing Asia.

Does Gillard inspire confidence? Clearly not in these two Labor MPs.

Julia Gillard's own MPs launch an attack on her ability to be Prime Minister
(Simon Benson from: The Daily Telegraph June 02, 2011)
"Two senior Labor MPs have unloaded on Julia Gillard, openly admitting to Coalition MPs at a function that she did "not have what it takes to be Prime Minister".
The alleged conversation, which shocked several Liberal frontbenchers, took place on Tuesday night at a party in the office of the Deputy Speaker Peter Slipper.
The MPs were angry at the PM for not showing enough support for the Labor Speaker Harry Jenkins, who was almost forced to resign when Labor lost a vote in parliament to uphold the Speaker's ruling..."
But never fear. It won't receive the same media prominence as 'Malcolm-gate'. Probably won't even rate a mention on 7:30 Report or Lateline.
They can't dump her, can they? It will make them look totally ridiculous. The rhetoric from the Coalition if they tossed her out would be intolerable to the government.It is now very obvious, Gillard's authority is waning fast. Just a matter of time before she has to go.
Was the source the libs though?
Normally the rest of the media jump all over stuff like this, and the tele is the only one with it running.
