I bring you back to former Labor trade minister Craig Emerson.What's worse? Not signing a crap deal or signing a crap deal and crowing about it?
He didn't think it was crap.

I will ask to you once again Sydboy, would you sooner have a half a loaf of bread or none at all?
Saying it's the best deal you could get would indicate he and Labor would have been happy to do it, contrary to what you yourself have indicated.Saying it's the best deal you could get is not the same as saying it was a good deal beneficial to Australia.

Craig Emerson invoked himself on the issue of the Japan FTA. Perhaps he considered it better than his singing ability and didn't want it to pass without at least trying to direct some of the credit to himself.If you want to invoke Emerson then you best admit the Abbott claims on the carbon tax were and are crap
Great News for the Abbott Government.....unemployment down....jobs being created......Australia is open for business....confidence back.....NO,NO,NO......Abbott could not have done it in 7 months.....it has to be Labors good work over the past 6 years......Bless their little hearts.

So by your logic with currently at least 5 Liberal members expressing public concern over the government’s intentions for sections 18C and 18D of the Discrimination Act that would mean the Liberal party is against the changes.
I don't see saying that something is the best deal someone else was able to get in anyways shows you believe it was a good deal or that you would have accepted the deal. I'd think most people would say something like "That's a good deal" or "I wish i could have got a similar / same deal."
Alan Kohler, gives his thoughts on the free trade agreements.

Don't you like the way the Green/Labor socialist lefties operate....they hate each other internally but the one thing they do have in common is they hate to see success in the coalition ranks......they are obviously envious of the way Abbott is going about things in an adult manner.......A manner which the Green/Labor could never achieve.
Credit where it's due: 13 years of Paul Keating between 1983 and 1996 set Australia up for a quarter of a century, so far, of recession-free growth.
He was 20-30 years ahead of his time, and now the rest of the world has had to accept that microeconomic reform is the way to go.
Well this is a turn up for the books, Mark Kenny giving Abbot some credit. Maybe the reporters are finding it difficult to find negative material to write about Abbott.
Yep, Tony has now greater insight than the missing plane search team.
Just announced to a large business conference in China that the seach has now closed right in, cross over to the search and, whoa no new information.
Anyow, he,s the Prime Minister and that my friends is where news comes from these days.
'Twas a shame about the years in between 2007 and 2013 though.....All Keatings good work was undone......rooned...ah la GG
Off topic, Carr,s he,s the past and dont want to promote him here.
Nah mate, keep it on the subject, but yeh,hard for u ole Pal to see Abbot losing sight of what his job is.
The latest polls indicate he (Abbott) is doing a great job....now you have to agree on that one ole mate......Like in comparison poor old Bill, he is going down, down, down and to make things worse he (Shorten) has now been accused of raping a 16 year girl.
