It's hard. Where were these posts when Gillard reneged on the gambling deal? When Abbott had the audacity to say he'd never supported an ETS, when he had done so and in writing not too long before? There are lies that matter, and there is this other stuff that barely rises above gossip level, and this is what gets people posting? Grinds my fucking gears.

You guys are both right about pollies lying. They all do it, that doesn't make it right.
It's bullshit for Gillard to get nailed over it like she's the first though. Howard lied on some pretty huge issues, no GST and children overboard off top of my head.

Oh, and is Campbell Newman a joke?

Like... why is he the opposition leader? Isnt he unlikely to even win a seat? Seems like the Libnats could have put a damn wet rag up as a candidate and done better >.>
Click to expand...

Ha you obviously didn't see the guys they'd been running with before. The LNP has just had nothing for years. I didn't know JP Langbroek was opposition leader for months after he came to power. Springborg was just a no one (watch him become premier if Newman loses Ashgrove) and even people in Callide don't like Jeff Seeney, they just vote for him because he's LNP and they're farmers.

Not a G and T fan. Could go cider though. What was the consensus AusGAF favourite when people were talking about that a while ago? Or I'm thinking Burliegh 28 Pale Ale.

Mr "non-core promise" himself.

Exactly. I've heard so many people saying this shit wouldn't have happened when Howard was in power. When it did. He flatlined in the polls, lied to the public and battled with internal issues for years.
Costello just didn't have the balls to do what Rudd did and challenge.

but but. It looks more authentic when the reporter is there in gumboots as opposed to him standing next to the water instead. Or something.

They are channel 9, what did you expect?

In my head Choc looks like that guy from Monkey Island who sells boats and waves his arms around. Except he has an angry face.

Can you tell me why its acceptable for the media to not follow the rules of the SES?

Hopefully politics talk is over. Getting angry at a politician for lying is like getting angry at a fish for swimming.

In other news, I'm on the train from work, heading to the footy. GO THE EELS!

Well if they were stupid enough to stand in the water and end up getting washed away A. it will make for awesome news (especially if its all on camera and they are mid speech) and B. they won't procreate, meaning the next generation is less likely to do something moronic. I have no idea why they aren't getting into trouble though. Why don't current affairs get into trouble for harassment/ trespassing etc, now that I think about it?

Haha, Cox. Admittedly it is a dead rubber for the Aussies.

Booze haul = Monteith's Sampler 4 pack, Ranga Red Ale 4 pack, and 2 "Beers of Mexico" 12 packs. 32 drinks for $50 sounds good to me!

lol Politics. The more things change the more they stay the same. Was an okay outcome today, some in some out. Life goes on.

NEARLY IRISH DAY ALREADY?!?
Aldi have got Magners cider on special next Wednesday, both Pear and Apple variety in the 568ml bottles for $4 each. Pretty sure that is a great deal right?

It's 2pm and nobody is at the uni bar. This is awkward. The ale is nice. $12 for a pint, Jesus.
Click to expand...
$12! What a rip! I can understand paying $10 a pint in Melbourne since everything is super expensive but $12 is pulling the leg too hard. My kingdom for another $2 pot happy hour near work.

Bob Carr isn't seriously foreign minister is he? I can't believe this. Give it to someone interested in foreign affairs - give it to steven smith!
Click to expand...
From the very little I have followed about Carr is that he has always had an interest in foreign affairs at it has been his focus since he left his successful career in politics with Labor. Makes a lot of sense.

My son has slightly more hair than yours. I feel more okay about being a balding man passing genes onto my son now.
Sucks that some babies just out of the womb has more hair than him.
Also the little guy wouldn't have loved the shit out of those penguins, starting to let him watch Penguins of Madagascar and he thinks it is hilarious.

Sucks if he was doing a good job as it means the public now has one less great mind to run things for them. No idea on him though so maybe he was a nufty.

Truth.

Also I picked up a slab for $30 which isn't lasting as long as I had hoped. Maybe I shouldn't be marrying someone who drinks pretty much any beer, less for me. :(

Jelly, our Safeway didn't get any of the Mexico packs, tempted to grab another Monteiths Sampler since Safeway have them on special too.

Yeah dude I got them from my BWS down the road. I bought the Monteith's Sampler and Ranga, and then AFTER that the cashier was like "Hey that was pretty cheap...but I know something cheaper." I did the are you fucking kidding me face, but told him to go on anyway. Ripping deal though, 24 beers for $32, ridiculous.

This Monteith's apple is good shit too. Good practice for a Buck's day/night tomorrow.

Actually the gst is a bigger "lie" than the carbon tax


ALP should be going on about that as TA was in that cabinet

Does James squire have a markup? Maybe that explains the cost of the pint. I think I paid less per pint at melbgaf meet, and those were delicious.

But also, all they have on tap is James squire. :/ and Boag's.

The Labor PR team this term have been fucking muppets to allow things to have fallen to shit so bad in public and media opinion. No fight coming out of Labor mouths at all, just misdirection making them look worse than they should. Fire the lot of them, bring in some new blood to craft a new PR campaign for the next election aiming to make the Liberals look like a pile of morons who can only bitch and complain without coming up with any real policies of their own.

Apple is okay but the Pear is fantastic. 8 for $22 at Safeway at the moment. No BWS here :(
