The Gillard Government

[Calliope]

he insulted Asian women badly.

There is no evidence of this.

He's a complete d****head and perfect partner for Gillard.

Maybe It's always a mistake for an amateur to offer professional advice. We could see a delay in men seeking prostate advice while that conduct a fruitless search for a "small female Asian doctor" who is an expert on prostates.

 

[MrBurns]

There is no evidence of this.
:

He inferred Asian women are better equipped to navigate a males anus.

Fairly insulting I'd say

Who cares. Seriously, can't we move on from this petty fauxrage about anything anyone says or does?

Not while that seems to be the way Labor want to play it, Ms misogynist heroine of fools and Youtube has to live by her own rules and if that what the hairdresser says in public it doesnt take much imagination to figure out the tone of the day to day conversation around the Gillard household.

Would love to move on but Roxon's new legislation means that Tim is likely to be prosecuted for a comment like this in the future. Couldn't agree with you more about petty faux rage but it's the Gillard governement that want to be able to prosecute people for making comments like this so not simply petty faux rage afterall unfortunately.

If the debate was actually about that, then fine. But it's not. It's about catching the other team out.

The proliferation of social networking and the 24 hour news cycle has created a shortage of real "news" so we're stuck debating whether someone is a misogynist or not. I doubt Tim or Tony are.

And I agree with your re Roxon's bill, we'll end up like Britain with people being put in gaol for Tweets that offend.

The ABC gets it right for a change.

It's been a busy day for our PM. One boot up the bum of her boyfriend and the other for the ABC.

Like usual, no legs left to stand on.

On the opposite side, but I feel for him. His removal, by the PM, as Attorney General was a political fix facilitating the ascension of Roxon. We have seen what followed.

Not so. The government has carefully given itself special immunity to the anti-discrimination Bill, so I guess Tim, being an appendage of the government would be immune too.

The right to offend and insult Tony Abbott in Parliament is an essential element of the government's election strategy. The handbag assassins, Gillard, Roxon, Plibersek and Wong are gearing up for this now. The beauty of their strategy is that any criticism of their tactics would "offend and insult" them.

.

A small appendage no doubt, and even smaller after that effort

 

[IFocus]

What a storm in a teacup. Who did he offend, insult or injure?:dunno: Male white doctors with fat fingers perhaps? But they don't have any political clout. Julia and Tim are probably laughing their heads off now.

Anyone who has lost their virginity from the examination will know he is speaking the truth.

But he did show a lack of class I would say

A sad loss to Parliament.

Those in the know will know he was sick of this Government.

He is a good bloke, has more intelligence than most and will be missed by both sides.

I will say no more.

It's astounding that after all the trouble and publicitiy surrounding this issue that the PM's partner should be mysogynist, sexist and racist all at once, just goes to show how much he involves himself in her work
Any dimwitted casual observer of current affairs wouldn't have made that blunder outside the public bar.

Burns, you have used every derogatory, obscene and vulgar word in the dictionary to recklessly demonize Julia Gillard, so don't give us a lecture on "misogyny".

 

[Calliope]

Political correctness gone mad. Some people want to give Tim Mathieson the same treatment as the Handbag Brigade gave Tony Abbott. Get a life.

Nothing to do with gender I repeat for the umteenth time, anyone who acts as she has done would get the same and if a man probably worse so if anything we've gone easy on her.

It's not misogyny, it's misogyfingerism.

When you have lightweights misusing the English language it usually ends in tears.

What a load of rubbish.

Criticise Gillard for her policies/actions instead of personal attacks.

You could take that exact same speech and subsitiute the words Alan Jones for Tim Mathieson.
A joke in bad taste, so whats the difference except Matheison being the PM's partner should have known better, no let him have it just as bad a Jones got it, in fact worse as he had a greater responsibility..

Thats exactly what I do, all her actions are degrading to the office of PM and not too good for our bank balance either.
