Ken Gargett Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 i promise not to go off on another 'aren't all politicians scum' rant but aussies will know that one of the particiapants in the pre-school political crap that has been going on here has now resigned - one assumes for a leadership challenge, though why any of these people would ever be associated with the word 'leadership' is beyond me. this person, for those offshore, was our foreign minister and he happened to be in washington at the time. so he calls a press conference at 1.30am to announce this. seriously. had we just declared war, far enough, call the 1.30am press conference, but to announce you're resigning (and he did stress how it was all about doing the honorable thing)? does he really think it was that urgent? now it just happened that by doing it at 1.30am, he is spot on for the timing of the evening news here. but that apparently is the honorable thing. what a lying hypocrite. so we have one lying hypocrite up against another lying hypocrite. sorry, i know i said no rant but they really are all the most self-centred, egotisical, scum. the last time i shook hands with a politician (and he was not of the party that these idiots belong), i literally went straight home for a shower. i really do hate them all.

Guest rob Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I refer to these 'leaders' and their government with the same letters that form the Acronym of our underground cigar network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cottierm Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Dear Ken, Politicians are all the same in every country on this planet. Infuriating they are but so are the people who elect those guys and gals! Best, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred170 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 The problem with politicians is that regardless of political stance; albeit left- right, they are pretty much self serving, ego driven, punch line men (and women). Many of them, if given the opportunity, can star in an infomercial and sell the crap of the SHAMWOW and the goat will follow....I digress!!!
