Useless Labor Party

Bill Shorten is all smoke and mirrors....He is certainly trying to put on a brave front, but even blind Freddy could see through him.

One of the first things he should do is give all his Shadow Ministers ( those ex useless union bosses) a crash course in Economics......I mean, history shows Labor just does not know how to manage the economy.

The CEO of David Jones hits out at the financial mess left by our comrades of the Green/Labor Party and Bull S!then has the audacity to whine, whinge and harp on about Abbott's broken promises..Bull Sh!ten is becoming like a cracked record.

Now how many ASF members would like to make up a party to book a table at this special dinner with Bull Sh!tin....It will only cost $13,000 per table?...That is a table for 10 but one will be free and that being one of the Labor shadow Ministers....So dig deep guys, it will only cost you $1.444 each and after all it will be for a good cause...you might even get some Green beer.

Can I have a show of hands please?

Couldn't we just accept that political parties engage in fund raising all the time and not make such an issue of it? If it's advertised, open and transparent, I don't see anything wrong with it. It is what it is.

The media, being precious as usual, are seeking to conflate a legitimate practice with all the corruption coming out of ICAC et al. In their own interests, not in that of the country.
 
special dinner with Bull Sh!tin.
Bull S!then has the audacity

I think that trashing people/politicians like this is unacceptable Noco. Could you please stick to criticizing what you believe he does.

Joe, Mods is this the way you want ASF to go ?

Toughen up princess.
 
Toughen up princess.

Noco spouts reams of mindless, poisonous bile on ASF. Almost all of it trashes anything left of Genghis Khan.
When he runs out anything remotely intelligent to say he reverts to puerile insults based on peoples names.

Because most of the remaining poster on ASF are also in rapture with anything/anyone that trashes Labour we now seem to allow the routine disfigurement of peoples names to abuse them before we even get to what they actually do.

Tough enough for you Banco ? Should we continue down this trail or could we reconsider whether referring to Bill Shorten as Bill ****en is unnecessary and not in the interests of a reasonable discussion ?

Cheers:)

Ha boss, that was not my idea......that was from Darren Hinch on AM Agenda.....

I guess if you blokes can call Joe Hockey "SLOPPY JOE" and Tony Abbott "TONY RABBIT", I guess it is ok to nick name others in the same fashion.

Loosen up fellows....what's in a name?....sorry if I have hurt your feelings and ruffled your feathers.;):D:D;)

So Noco you just copied someone elses nasty little jibe ? Do you think theres maybe a difference between "Sloppy Joe" "Tony Rabbit" and Bill Sh!ten "? ( By the way I'd hesitate to trash Liberal politicians names as just a routine sledge on the same grounds as I think the Bill Shorten trash is peurile and adds only nastiness to the discussion)

So it is worth dropping the sledge for the sake of civility ?

Cheers :)

It sells papers Julia. There has always been a gentlemen's agreement between donors and recipient parties that once government has been achieved that the largesse would flow back the other way ... this is called business. On the other hand if the donation was to go directly to the recipient and not into the parties coffers then this is called chicanery.

I will leave with a joke to make it clear as to what happens when you donate to the wrong party.

For three years, the young ALP member took his vacations at a country Motel. He had an affair with the Motel owner's daughter. Looking forward to an exciting few days, he dragged his suitcase up the stairs of the motel, then stopped short. There sat his lover with an infant on her lap! "Why didn't you write when you learned you were pregnant?" he cried. "I would have rushed up here, we could have gotten married, and the child would have my name!"

"Well," she said, "when my parents found out about my condition, we sat up all night talkin' and talkin' and we finally decided it would be better to have a bastard in the family than a Laborite."

I will take this as an opportune time to say what I have always thought "noco" meant - "no comprehension".

If you are offended, "loosen up".

Is this the same basilio that refers to all folks who don't conform to the dystopian alarmist religious doctrine as "deniers"?

Yep - and particularly when they profess to being capable of reading and understanding the science behind climate changes.

When I was having a go at Noco I was challenging the trashing of a politicians name which, in the context used by anti Labour scribes, is intended to create a nasty association just with the persons name ie Juliliar, Bill Sh!ten
It's the type of derogatory insult used with groups/people we want to put down.

Regarding the use of "deniers". I'm totally over being understanding with you, Wayne, or the overwhelming majority of people who attempt to dismiss what is happening with global warming as either "inconsequential" "not our fault" " or "it isn't happening". There is now overwhelming evidence that demonstrates :

1) What is happening will be far from inconsequential.
2) The probability that human action is the cause of current changes is extremely high and
3) Yes it really is happening.

I can certainly understand and accept discussions on the extent of what will happen. But on all indications the question is a matter of whether we increase global temperatures by 2 Degree C, 4 or 6 plus. If that isn't the starting position on discussions the person (IMO) is either simply ignorant, willfully ignorant or has an agenda that will not accept acknowledgment of evidence.

The word "deniers" reflects that statement. I use the same language for people who think the Apollo moon landing didn't happen, that Obama is not American, and that the world was created 6000 years ago.

Cheers :)
 
Wayne Swan must be in complete denial.....He still believes we should be in surplus....did this prawn ever go to school.....He does not know how to use a calculator let alone his brain if he has one......he is unbelievable....and he will have the audacity to retire on $200,000 per year for not knowing what he was doing.....OMG.

http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/...yne_swan_shows_exactly_why_were_in_this_mess/

And now Shorten and Albo are in denial.......They are so narrow minded, I am sure they could see through a key hole with both eyes.

Still in the big river in Egypt:-

What makes this worse is that Shorten is kicking Abbott for trying to fix the disaster created by Labor.
Left a surplus, and gifted our greatest mining boom, the Rudd and Gillard governments still piled up $190 billion of deficits in just five years.

They plunged into an orgy of spending so carelessly, it’s criminal.

The $44 billion national broadband white elephant was mapped out on the back of a beer coaster by prime minister Kevin Rudd and his communications minister.

The $3 billion free insulation disaster was scribbled out by Rudd’s “inner circle” on a serviette, one of the scheme’s advisers claimed last week at the royal commission.

And Labor’s big spending is still locked in, so we face another decade of deficits unless something is done. Already we’re paying $12 billion a year in interest on Labor’s debt.

Well Abbott could have taxed the living sh1te out of everyone but instead it looks like they are going to cut their own in house spending which IMO is a good thing. When your own finance department cannot tell you how many agencies are on the government payroll you are in serious trouble. :banghead:

More than happy to my share of tax but not for it to be wasted on useless programmes that bring no real worth into the economy. Who made all the money from the $900 handouts? Ermmmm ... Harvey Norman that's who as everyone rushed out and bought a BIG TV !!
