Gillard/Rudd: The End-Game

Jump to new
Apparently the producers of the Big Bang Theory have swooped in at this opportune moment and offered Rudd a staring part on the show.

It’s rumoured that Rudd will not be given a script, he will simply be directed to hang around and be himself - join in whenever the inspiration takes him.

Rudd has thanked the producers of the show, along with the rest of the world, with a gleeful speech and a beaming Therese by his side. He stated that he is currently consulting the voices in his head and will make an announcement from the Lincoln memorial centre shortly as to his plans.

His daughter is encouraging her fellow twits to order multiple 100” TVs and has begun writing a new book titled the “The Great Successor.”

No surprises there then. Just remains to be seen if Rudd will go to the back bench and remain there quietly ;)

Hi Miss Hale. Kevin has ensured that his every action will receive maximum press coverage.

So unkind some of the commentary today. Choice between a pyschopath and a sociopath.. Alert and bright-eyed both of them!

Hardly.
People are starting to understand why he was removed!
Not because an over ambitious knife weilding 'woman' ate the liver of a great leader, as the Murdoch press have done so well in convincing all the half witts is the case, in order swing things to the liberals, but because he was actually a power drunk dweeb destroying is own party and the country!

The personal polling of Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard over the weekend didn't reflect that.
 
GG
Don't take it to heart your man lost you did every thing humanly possible to save the nation from QE 3, CFC, GW, WD40 and deserve a DSO.
My hat comes of to you for your statesman like manner and the chance you had to exploit the situation and get a book/movie offering after Mad Max we could have had Krazy Kev but you resisted the strong desire.
Gillard won by a long nose which is some thing in her Genetic makeup or makeup department supplied.
Enjoy you meal and swap a few war stories I would like to be a fly on the wall.

Maybe you should hide any sharp objects and leave Kevvie being the only thing sharp.

Australia will be poorer now we would have the FHOB being increased to high thirties, we are insulated from insulation for ever, school will in a bad state that's every state I might add and we can still watch Lady GAGA at 100GB a second at the Birdsville races on our I phones
By the way does your roller have a fox tail on the aerial?

This is actually a really relevant point. If the media were now to ignore him (they won't of course) he would fade out. But they are so wedded to creating controversy that they will constantly seek him out and ask him for his views about everything, thus cementing the notion in the minds of the electorate that he still really matters.
I hope I'm wrong.

This is Kevin Rudd here, I am at Nottings house and have just disposed of him.

I would like to remind all Austalians that whatching Lady Gaga on the internet was not what inspired me to come up with the superdooper high speed broadband network. I was actually alone in my room and was finding it very frustrating waiting for an email from my mother who art in heaven. That's the simple unflatable truth of it.
In a fit of, well, quite frankly, rage, I snatched Stephen out of his speach therapy lessons and called a press converence to announce the 43 billion dollar superdooper woopie doopie hells bells captian saucebottles giant leap forwad internetfaceoff. It had nothing to do with Lady Gaga or the like. I love my wife dearly and she pays me to do that.
Now, if you will excuse me I have some important things to think about myself.
 
Glad to have you here and welcome Kevvie to ASF and hope you will give us the chance to clear a few things up.
It was reported on the BBC your driver told reporters you are so narrow minded you can look through a key hole with both eyes he also stated you need to borrow 50 C to make a phone call to one of your mates he offered to give you $1 so you could ring both.
Now are you running for the Raving Loonie Party in UK or not or are you taking over from that other great Australasian Bakka Burke in the ambassadorial role at Holy See Embassy after the warm reception you received on the 29 Sept..
It has been mentioned the crowd you spoke to were newly arrived boat people which may explain the cheering and waving

I appreciate the work you created for us undertakers when you introduced the insulation policy, good luck to both of you and we all hope your time over seas is a long one..
Please come back for the AFL grand final and kick a few balls.
 
Gillard, Swan, Conroy and Roxon all threw BRICK BATS at K.Rudd last week.

ACOLADES AND PRAISE this week.

What a mob of HYPOCRITES.
 
Hi.
It was interesting to watch the arrivals prior to the ballot.
Gillard with the front line troops.
Rudd with "Dad's Army".
joea

Yes they are now trying to pacify him with praise, take the steam out of his resentment. That way he may hot hatch another kamakazi attack.

If K.Rudd was such a bad minister last week and such a good minister this week, why hasn't Gillard invited him back into her cabinet.

Maybe she is terrified of more adverse leaks from K.Rudd.

But what about the other cabinet ministers who voted against her?

She will not be able to blame K.Rudd if there are more leaks!!!!!!!!;);)
 
Now Rudd is out of the running for the UN job and he is on the backbench. How will his ego cope without being in the spotlight

I think the more significant portrayal is safe seats vs marginals. The marginals now know the kitchen cabinet considers them expendable.

'..Not a moment to lose..' says the PM. The unspoken intent: middle class Australia, they're coming after you. Cementing in as much green and socialist policy is the thing. The Greens controlled Senate is the rearguard to lock it all in.

More leadership turmoil to come. I would keep an eye on Bill Shorten over the next 18 months.

As for the Coalition leadership, Tony Abbott as a white male Christian heterosexual with children, quite naturally ought to be considered suspect, and besides, he goes around being the cause of everything. Unbelievably, he is known to wear speedos, and swim at the beach and participate in a volunteer bushfire brigade!

Quite right, Australia must be saved from having such a person as leader.

You forgot that he spends a couple of weeks each year working voluntarily in remote Aboriginal communities and has done for many years. Hmm, yep, definitely got to keep him from becoming PM ;)
 
GG.

To continue your chess analogy, I think you were premature, in your use of "End-Game" in your thread title. I think Kevin has been playing the opening game ever since he was ambushed.There are many different variants of the opening game. "These vary widely in character from quiet positional play to wild tactical play. In addition to referring to specific move sequences, the opening is the first phase of a chess game, the other phases being the middlegame and the endgame."(Wiki.)

I think we are now watching the middlegame and the endgame is further down the track.

You may not agree with me, but if you do, you may wish to reconsider your title.

So what has changed for Aboriginals as a result other than Tony photo opportunities?

Oh they are heaps better off now, Kev said "sorry". That was a big photo opportunity and the government has kicked on and realy improved things for them.
Maybe Tony could take one of the labor members with him on the next trip.:D
