Kevin Rudd

Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

P.S. While you have been incarcerated, Kevin Rudd has been banging Jodie Foster like a screen door in a tornado. You might want to look into that.

LOL

The Krudd would not have it in him. Besides Jodie would be able to hold him off with one hand tied behind her back.

Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

This is doing the rounds at the moment

AUSTRALIAN WAY

No matter what side of the AISLE you're on, THIS is FUNNY and VERY telling! It just all depends on how you look at some things.

Judy Rudd, an amateur genealogy researcher in southern Queensland, was doing some personal work on her own family tree. She discovered that Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's great-great uncle, Remus Rudd, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Melbourne in 1889. Both Judy and Kevin Rudd share this common ancestor.



The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the gallows at the Melbourne Gaol.

On the back of the picture Judy obtained during her research is this inscription: 'Remus Rudd horse thief, sent to Melbourne Gaol 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Melbourne-Geelong train six times. Caught by Victoria Police Force, convicted and hanged in 1889.'




So Judy recently e-mailed Prime Minister Rudd for information about their great-great uncle, Remus Rudd.

Believe it or not, Kevin Rudd's staff sent back the following biographical sketch for her genealogy research:

"Remus Rudd was famous in Victoria during the mid to late 1800s. His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Melbourne-Geelong Railroad.
Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad.
In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the Victoria Police Force. In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honour when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed."

That's how it's done, Folks!

NOW, that's real POLITICAL SPIN.

If the pictures don't show don't worry you don't need them to get the gist!



THE COW AND THE ICE CREAM



ONE OF THE BEST EXPLANATIONS

ON HOW RUDD WON THE ELECTION - don't make the same mistake twice!



From a teacher in the Geelong area

"We are worried about 'the cow' when it is all about the 'Ice Cream.'


The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year...






The election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest.

I decided we would have an election for a class president.

We would choose our nominees. They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote.

To simplify the process, candidates were nominated by other class members.

We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students should have.

We got many nominations and from those, Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.

The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids.

I thought Jamie might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support.

I had never seen Olivia's mother.

The day arrived when they were to make their speeches.

Jamie went first.

He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place.
He ended by promising to do his very best.

Everyone applauded and he sat down.

Now it was Olivia's turn to speak.

Her speech was concise.

She said, "If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream."

She sat down.

The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream."

She surely would say more. She did not have to.

A discussion followed. How did she plan to pay for the ice cream?

She wasn't sure.

Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it.

She didn't know.

The class really didn't care.

All they were thinking about was ice cream.

Jamie was forgotten. Olivia won by a landslide.

Every time Rudd opened his mouth he offered ice cream and
52 percent of the people reacted like nine year olds.

They want ice cream.

The other 48 percent know they're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess."

This is the ice cream Rudd promised us!



Remember, the government cannot give anything to anyone --
that they have not first taken away from someone else.
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?


But i like ice cream
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

When you get to voting age, you may change your mind.
The ice cream Rudd serves up is brown and the taste is terrible.

Growing old is inevitable
Growing up is optional
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

Rudd has once again found a diversion from the SPRT on miners.

* Parental leave is passed by the senate.

* The big deal with Teltra on the NBN.

Rudd must be relieved he has the media NOT talking about the "HOT POTATO".
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

Tara Brown's interview on 60 minutes tonight was interesting. Once again Rudd fires a question back at a question to avoid answering anything. Weak, weak man. His wife then had to come on and say the thing that drives him is Compassion! What a classic!

Another thing of note...that Penrith by-election had a 7% swing to the Greens as well!

I felt like throwing up at this! Compassion??? Like hell.
Pure hubris and self aggrandisement, more likely.
I suppose she's just doing her, um, wifely duty. And probably she rather likes living in the Lodge.

Well said, Julia and describes my own sentiments exactly when watching the show. "Compassionate" is not how I would describe him nor were the rumors from insiders complimentary when he was in Qld govt.

Is she in love with the grandeur and prestige that goes with hubby being PM? So many perks with housekeepers, free overseas travel, functions and dining with VIPs. IMO it was simply another attempt to distract the sheeple into the illusion that all is well.

Me thinks this is all the beginnings of another 2007 style of slick marketing campaign to get himself back into running the country as a one man show (as, I think, Graham Richardson pointed out) for another three years...

While running the country doesn't appear to be one of Rudd's abilities, clever marketing and illusions does appear to be something he knows how to do well.

Very disturbing and frightening for Australia's future if he plays his pipe and Aussies come under his "nice man" spell once again.

IMO , Aussies need to be very vigilent over the next few weeks...

What does it feel like spending 11 billion dollar of tax payers money to counter a bad poll?

Wasn't "Time for Change" part of their last election slogan?
Little did we know that 'Change' was a reference to how much money would be left in our pockets after labors spendathon
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

Was it just me or was Tara Brown hitting him with a feather? The questions were peurile and did not illicit the reponses she was trying to obtain. Face reading the nostrils flared and the eyelids headed North on several occasions. I thought just when she could have flipped the switch from measured control to rabid madman she stopped short ? It all seemed a bit too contrived for me. It was not a hack job, it was not a snow job?

It actually seemed to me a very poorly researched interview without much basis on facts or figures. Not hard hitting and not really going for the jugular on the tough personality questions. Then to have Mother Therese bleat on how wonderful and "compassionate" her husband is !! For crying out loud ! Derrrrrrrrrr ...... nope she gonna come out and say he has a temper like a militant trade unionist bikie and eats small children for breakfast and loves to screw the voting public for all they are worth. For Chrissake ! Then the crocodile tears welled up and she says "I get so emotional on this subject because he cares so much" ...... vomit.

From what I gather, this big deal with Telstra on the NBN is not yet a "done deal". Things might still change.
 
Re: Does Rudd inspire confidence?

I agree on all points. But really I don't know why you're even a bit surprised about this. It was typical 60 Minutes crap. Shows how desperate Rudd is that he'd agree to be part of it.

From what I gather, this big deal with Telstra on the NBN is not yet a "done deal". Things might still change.
Yes, I heard two telecommunications specialists today saying shareholders shouldn't get too carried away at this stage of what is a non-binding agreement from which Telstra can walk away at any stage.
The suggestion was made that Telstra have been quite smart about this and left themselves flexibility to cope with the possibility that the government will change and the NBN will be scrapped.
