ahhh fuck its the rats again
Has any Prime Minister fallen out of a honeymoon period so quickly? I mean most polls are putting the ALP in the 53-54% territory by now and no G20, Obama visit or any mention of the carbon tax is stopping this trend. I'm not saying #OneTermTony, just that there's been zero recovery from this government yet.

It's pretty much unprecedented.

No, no Prime Minister has ever lost popularity so quickly. Don't forget that Tony's been dead in the polls for almost a year now, so at the point that Tony lost popularity Rudd was at something like 58/42, and it took until 2.5 years in for him to even drop to 52/48.

On a question about military funding, Tony Abbott says it's ironic Shorten asks since he helped place Australia in the financial position that it is now.

e; Bishop just said that anyone that spoke over her would get 94A'd. Two Liberal members then proceeded to shout over her. Joel Fitzgibbon raises on a point of order and points out she hasn't kicked them out, and she 94A's Fitzgibbon.

lmao

e; during a question about the East-West link, somebody mentions that the ALP want to follow the Greens to collect preferences and Ablo raises on a point of order to say that they follow Infrastructure Australia's advice, not the Greens. Bishop 94A's him before he can finish the sentence.

Who are you even talking to

The things I posted were references to just some of the horrible poo poo Abbott's done and tried to pass off as innocent. Nothing exists without context. Context can turn a simple phrase into an insult.

For example your sewing circle and gossip circle remarks. You then came back with:

quote:

Gossip circle is not a gendered term, come on


This was utter bullshit and you know it. That's the exact sort of bullshit Abbott and other racist shitheads pull.


Fruity Gordo posted:

What's unreasonable is that you expect me to bother trying to have a conversation with you about a heavily gendered topic when you're not even sophisticated enough to avoid gendered sledging. Unless you think that terms like 'sewing circle' exist in a rhetorical vacuum. Which you probably do because you are an utterly witless turd.

Yes use of the word hysterical was not at all a response to bring attention to the fact that you think it's okay to brainlessly poo poo out gendered terms and then when called out on them continue with more gendered terms.
