You may be right gg. What with the IPA and Peter Reith appearing every five minutes, not to mention Piers Ackerman, the ABC is too far Right for me these days
Doc, just remember that Horace gets much of his opinion from the ABC.
Do not confront, him , but rather encourage him to partake of SBS and Skynews, as well as watching the ABC.
I have met many like him, who have been thankful for the liberation.

They'll have other things to talk about..........Question time should be intereresting, Gillard would be wise not to show up.
I agree. My point, which seems to have eluded you, is that spin is prevailing with the widespread belief, promoted shamelessly by the government and assisted by the lazy media, that people will actually be able to earn more without those earnings being taxed. It simply is not so.I suppose this will fall on deaf ears, but its more efficient to cut the tax free thresholds than take money away from people then give it back again in 'offsets'.
They'll have other things to talk about..........
The budget.
The carbon tax.
The whole party would be wise not to show up and leave the defence of the fort to Andrew Wilkie.
Hold your breath at 5:59pm on election day.I shall not be holding my breath.

All I expect (and what a hopeless expectation) is that the policy should be transparent and honestly represented to the electorate.
I shall not be holding my breath.
Would the Prime Minister explain why she says Fair Work Australia is to be respected when the ACTU have dissociateded themselves from it.
Yes, indeed they are missing the obvious opportunity. They have made some references to it, but not enough.I've heard zilch from the Opposition on this matter, so they are obviously falling down on the job as well, if the compensation package is as bad as you say.
Any noises the Coalition makes I suspect would be drowned out by the explosions that are currently emanating from within what's left of the house of Labor.Yes, indeed they are missing the obvious opportunity. They have made some references to it, but not enough.

Sure, and the Coalition has so many points about the government which attract criticism. Probably hard to continuously cover them all.Any noises the Coalition makes I suspect would be drowned out by the explosions that are currently emanating from within what's left of the house of Labor.
.The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm out of this load of rubbish over a number of months. There will be no easy execution for you. You have perpetrated one of the great mischiefs on the Australian public with this thing, trying to rip away our social wage, trying to rip away the Australian values which we built in our society for over a century
Can anyone believe Gillard is handing our cheques of $250 per pensioner and $100 per child before the carbon dioxide tax (whoops "CARBON PRICE") comes into force July 1Can somebody tell me how many pensioners and kids currently live in Australia?

Could this be the big announcement GG posted yesterday.This is a one-off handout for a systemic impost or tax that will be permanently imposed on us, and one which is likely to increase over time.
Will anyone on election day (including those who have received this or other cash) be silly enough to vote for the continued imposition of this tax?
Is anyone in the Labor Party really thinking here? And the electorate will react even more savagely if the faceless men again decide to put someone other than the PM who this on us to the vote on election day.
