noco , fair point, … oops lol -
but the following additional points are also relevant ...
a) thanks for clarifying that your word "childist" was indeed a typo.
I mean there are "ageist" tactics for instance, (racist, sexist, etc)
.. so I figured you'd used "childist" tactics intentionally .
b) you claimed "you were appalled" without a single example. Hence I would say you were inviting some counter-comment - with or without pedantry.
c) Since I have acknowledged my error, will you acknowledge that you have latched onto a minor error in my response to you, without acknowledging the point that on this particular thread at least, the reverse is true, i.e. Liberal supporters use the more offensive adjectives / criticism. ?
d) Fortunately (for my argument) Paul Keating has moved on lol.
e) PS (I add PS's in the time for double-checking) - Should you call me a socialist, I'll reject that - though perhaps , like your typo .. " childist vs childish " , I am socialish
shinbone the day I don't make a typpo in my posts is miles out there in the future..Good one 2020 but remember "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones". Gotcha.
don't hassle the religion of RuddtologyNoco...you didn't have to wait long but remember DO NOT ANGER THE LABOR GODS
Question for you blokes - how many Fridays were these parliamentarians asked to work? - (i.e. when they carried on as if the boss had asked them to work every day through their Xmas holidays for the next ten years , sheesh. )
Only one Friday 2020. Krudd got his fingers burnt and did not have the guts to seek a second Friday. Even some of his own party were critical of this prank since he did not turn up himself.
Pepperoni, you might like to moderate the above comment. Apparently Mr Turnbull is a Catholic. Why did you assume, without checking, that he was a Jew? And for that matter, what do you have against Jews?I think Rudd is about as likable as Turnbull (ie not at all) but thank god he has a level head on the economy without all the talking up and chasing unsustainable growth of the last govt.
And call me racist or whatever but I stronly prefer a christian PM like K Rudd. Not sure many christian countries elect jews or muslims nowadays.

The fight for the Federal seat of Wentworth is between the self-appointed, Honorary Jew (Malcolm Turnbull) and the proudly Zionist, True Jew (George Newhouse.)
John Monash - the outsider who won a war
"Without question John Monash was the greatest commander of World War One!"
This is the claim of Roland Perry, author of "Monash, the Outsider who won a war" Perry, in conversation with Trevor Chappell went further and claimed he is the greatest Australian - greater than Don Bradman! - (which he can claim with some authority as he he is Bradman's biographer!)
If so, how did an Australian achieve this in WW1 and why is it that we know so little about him?. etc
Troops later recounted that one of the most extraordinary things about the Battle of Hamel was not the use of armoured cars, or simply the tremendous success of the operation, but the fact that in the midst of battle Monash had arranged delivery of hot meals up to the front line.
By the end of the war Monash had acquired an outstanding reputation for intellect, personal magnetism, management and ingenuity. He also won the respect and loyalty of his troops: his motto was "Feed your troops on victory". Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery later wrote: "I would name Sir John Monash as the best general on the western front in Europe".
His face is on Australia's highest value currency note ($100).
Monash's success in part reflected the tolerance of Australian society, but to a larger degree his success - in the harshest experience the young nation had suffered - shaped that tolerance and demonstrated to Australians that the Australian character was diverse, multi-ethnic, and a blend of the traditions of the 'Bush' and the 'city'.

I dont think that politicians should bring any religous views to the table.. they are there to represent australia as a whole..
I have been a big Rudd fan, up to now i didnt think the libs had anything on him.. (howard, costello or nelson anyway) but I think Turnbull can bring it home.. he has me swung on personality, charisma, stating what he thinks with out reteric and being confident to say it and not steer away from any issues.. with a few good policies he will be next pm hands down..
