Rudd's issues with self control, televised

You be doing the shuffle with so much side stepping my points. I didnt say the ALP were doing anything new, I said what they were doing in the way they were doing it was evidence of their incompetence.

 

Well said bugs

 

Its going to be awesome to watch you labor/greens supporter cry when ABBOTT wins the next election as the leader of the lib. All he has to do is sit back and wait for the last few brick of the alp to fall down....

 

Wow 15.4 billion, to pay of rebuilding and saving our economy, we may have to make a few cutbacks, like the 14 billion we gamble every year, or cut our senior company executive's salaries by 10%

As for the amount of experience the Labor people have in the corporate world, has the same exercise been done for the Liberals. I feel it has as you would want to show just how much better they are. But they weren't so you didn't.

If we look for instance at the list of no experience you wrote, every one is applicable to Tony Abbot, your preferred CEO of Australia.

 

15.4 billion EVERY year. 15.4 billion that the libs will have to pay off coz theres bugger all chance labor will do it. and the howard suplus saved the economy not labor

 

Except it didnt and was not needed. The capacity of the banks to reduce interest rates did more to protect Australia from the initial GFC shock then anything the ALP spent of our money. The GFC's impact on Australia was milder and longer, but the ALP overreacted, overspent and as a result wasted lots of money in additional to not even having to spend it to begin with. The Libs proposed much reduced measures which in hindsight would have been sufficient to ride through the initial GFC shock, without screwing the Australian economy and thus allowing us to better survive the longer term impacts of the GFC. Now thanks to the ALP incompetance we have heaps of debt and less capacity to borrow if things do go sideways again.

 

That's pretty scary and sad. Perhaps the ALP should ask Rudd's wife, as she is filthy rich.

 

We don't have heaps of debt.



No need to panic. Well there will be if the Coalition gets in but at the moment no need.

 

I will let you in on a little secret. Abbott and the Libs are terrified of fighting Rudd at the next election. Rudd has tremendous public support 2nd only to perhaps in his day, Bob Hawke.

 

Yes, I know and I have to agree. Abbott is loving this, which is why the ALP need to pull themselves together and stop acting like children.

 

Rudd is hugely popular with the public. I just don't understand why the MP's don't support Rudd. The public are the ones who decide which party takes power, so they should be listening to us and putting the person who the public prefers in office.

 

According to how the polls seem to go, he is popular until he has been in power for awhile because people tire of him (or is it just the ALP policies). If the ALP think Rudd is their best weapon for the next election they should keep him in wraps until closer to the election so ppl dont get sick of him like they did last time.
