"Liberals in Disarray"
- NineMSN May 25, 2008
"In the wake of John Howard's electoral defeat,
the Liberal Party is not only out of power federally,
but also in every state and territory."
poor old tory media.. it's only taken them
SIX MONTHS to realise they are rejected by voters
EVERYWHERE across the country..
No wonder their intellectual leaders, Sirvile John,
Green Limpet, and atug77 huddle together, lick each
others wounds, toolfondle and whimper! B^D
"A series of recent blunders and embarrassments by State
Leaders and Senior staffers across the states certainly
haven't helped the situation."
electing Brenda?
"It's left the former political party at its lowest ebb ever."
Sewerage finds it's own level. B^)
"Senior members of the party are now scrambling to find
a solution to turn the party around."
Don't do it.. LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL, think about those
you would leave behind!
I knew they were too brittle to cope with life's tests! 8..(
"But can a party so dramatically down on its luck
build up enough stamina to embrace radical reform?"
Turnbull can't even build up enough stamina to
say what he thinks about Brenda's pisweak excise joke! B^D
"The pronouncements on the state of the Liberal Party cast
a dark shadow over the party's future, perhaps a sign that
the wilderness years will be long and painful."
For once the Sunday windbags got it right, not much
detail, but no one can miss the almighty stench
hanging over the carcass of the Liberal Party! B^D
"In this report Edith Cowan University professor of politics,
Dr Peter van Onselen, talks to a number of senior members of
the Liberal Party's parliamentary team about the challenges
ahead in organisational reform, policy change and leadership
problems at state and federal levels, as well as possible
solutions to their current problems:"
"WHAAAAAAAAH .." "The sky is FALLING!"
"mummy? I want mummy"
"Who ordered the Leonard Cohen records and a box
of rusty razor blades"
Run away all you chicken littles! B^D

# "Oil prices hit new high" - ABC Online 20/2/2003

# "World oil prices have hit a two-and-a-half year high.
#
# "Fears of a war with Iraq have sent the price of crude

That was just the rise caused by the FEAR of war, the actual war
itself REDUCED the output from Iraq!!!!
Lower supply, rising demand = price increases.
Oil was already experiencing long term price rises due to
it's growing scarcity.. Howard and Bush's war just made it WORSE!.
During Howard and Costello's government prices at the
pump TRIPLED!!! And all they did in response was ADD
the GST on TOP OF EXCISE.. A TAX ON A TAX!!
Are you all enjoying paying for their war at the pump?
