Abbott in Government

[serfty]

Did he seriously ever say it was 50%?
...

It was 70% of $800 of $1564 - more like 35% ... but certainly not 9% ...

 

[BadgerBoi]

No I'm surprised three terms got it wrong I mean it was never going to be 70% and he must have known that so the whole story is a bit confusing

The story is quite straightforward. One Term Tony is quoted as saying 70% Now, Christopher Pyne might find simple figures confusing as he's been admitting lately when he's trying to come to terms with Gonski (poor little chap), but One Term Tony just got it wrong. Again.

Well he does have the odd brain freeze that interview where he looked like he was having a stroke springs to mind.

Hopefully he's been rebooted now he's PM. That's old news anyway I'm sure Tony 2.0 will erase it from history

The article quoted said around 9%. Certainly not 35%.

Gillard said 9.13%, Abbot incorrectly indicated 70% of an $800 increase of a $1564 bil.

Sounds like Phoney Tony meant 2/5 of 3/5 of sweet fanny adams ?

Yes, those figures came from the article I quoted. Admittedly it was a Murdoch rag, but his buffoonery was widely reported at the time.

And that's our PM now. A real statesman.

I'm going to watch it again to see if there's something that I missed.

That was before the reboot he's going through that spinning beach ball moment if you have Mac clearly his RAM has been upgraded since then.

Makes me laugh every time though I especially like the nodding motion

The Coalition just needs to accumulate DD triggers and maximise the amount of air time reminding everyone about Labor's economic incompetence and addiction to Gaia-worshipping green cults. Then we can wipe out this fifth column of cultural Marxists and give Australia a chance at greatness again.

Looks like Abbott gets to 100% own the spying on Timor for commercial gain issue from 2006.

Funny. Shame that it was the cultural Marxists who transformed the Australian economy after the coalition failed to do so.

My medical diagnosis is that TA is having a Petit Mal seizure!! Google it for those that don't know what this is!

A question for the masses:

Now that the construction boom in WA has slowed dramatically, if not ground to a halt, should those on 457's be told "Thanks but time to go" due to the large numbers of Australian citizens being let go?

 

[tgh]

the masses did their duty , voted, and are getting on with their lives..
Here.. are the rusted on lefties and righties….. along with a small audience enjoying the entertainment and the free beer…..

Re: Oz Federal Election 2013 - Discussion and Comments

So two surprises today

Greens side with the government over the debt ceiling but I suppose they realise that if they don't TA will slash benefits in preference to cutting anything else.

Craig Thomson thinks Jeff Thomson is like an invisible cloak and no one will put 2 & 2 together Re the red turbo spa room lol

According to the ABC anyway I'm not passing judgement I think he's been framed

No chance of a DD, I believe.

Giving either side an uncapped credit card spells doom for mine.

Re: Oz Federal Election 2013 - Discussion and Comments

The third surprise....

7.30 report - how easy it was for Scott Morrison to make Leigh Sales look like a first year apprentice. Apparently, Scott is afraid of interviews - well he made very short work of Leigh!

Geez, the ABC needs to bring back Chris Uhlmann and quickly!
