So much for watching every penny to achieve the Surplus

"Foreign Minister Bob Carr has defended taking his wife Helena with him on almost every overseas trip he has taken in the role.

Documents obtained under freedom of information legislation by news agency Australian Associated Press show the cost of Mrs Carr's travel is more than $120,000."

Gotta keep living like you were when working for the Millionaire Factory, ay Bob? His + his wife's costs have been $1M. Fark me, he's been in the job for less than a year. Bring back Kevin 747.

She must be a skilled woman.....

Or bored.

[skully]

Phurt, she's merely a distraction to keep the "Bob is gay" rumours at bay.

Annabel Crabb on how Tony Abbott doesn't "get" women:

A few weeks ago, the Opposition Leader gave an interview to Triple M's Grill Team - a line-up boasting the former footballer Matty Johns, and promoted widely as "Sydney's Manliest Men".

Mr Abbott took two of his daughters along with him, and the first few moments of the show were spent in friendly joshing with the presenters about how good-looking the girls are.

As a listener, my hackles rose immediately. I have enough trouble with the fact that a chap who is most famous for gang banging a 19-year-old girl even has a radio show, let alone being promoted as one of "Sydney's Manliest Men", let alone having the opportunity to drool over Mr Abbott's daughters.

She sounds a right Crabb. What a yawnable woman, who listens to Triple-M. It's the grill team - what did she expect? Deary me.

Now, who does she think she is, Germaine Greer?

Like anyone involved in thugby would have a more modern view about objectifying women than Abbott has.

[Henry]

The blatant sexism against men that has been occurring in Australian politics in recent weeks is frankly disgraceful.

Still far behind if it wants to catchup to the weeks of sexism against women since 1901 (or whenever it was we decided we didn't like being officially pommish).

[skully]

Damn straight, Trev. As Joe Hockey says with a smirk "We can't criticise the Govt for anything at the moment without being accused of sexism against the PM. It's a pathetic way to avoid responding to accusations of poor performance."

[Paul Keating]

The government's strategy of suggesting everything is sexism is stupid.

What is more stupid is the belief of the conservatives that Tony Abbott is being blamed for everything and is being dragged through mud.

Seriously has anyone read the papers in the past two years. It is Gillard who has been hung, quartered and drawn. She has been blamed for everything.

[skully]

That's a bit harsh, Ponts. The Goose deserves at least half the blame.

[Paul Keating]

I am waiting for you to bring up today's headlines about Gillard's involvement in the coup against Qunt faced Rudd.

Nothing new in Maxine's book.

[skully]

Meh, every knows she was plotting for months to knife him. The lie that she only decided that night is laughable.

you forget skully

[skully]

The worst thing I can be blamed for is the Pinkos being re-elected next year. I really hope I'm not having to apologise for that one.

[lardbucket]

no apology would suffice

[skully]

Indeed. I have my gun loaded.

[skully]

So is Maxine McKew a raging sexist for calling the Vulture a lying, conniving, disloyal grub in her book?

[skully]

I learned a new word today. Misandry. It is the hatred of men.

I accuse the Vulture, the Muncher, the Spellis, the Greasy Hairdo and the Plebiscite of being misandrists. They are heinous creatures for the way they talk about and treat Tony Abbott. Shame on them.

Because she's a crap Prime Minister. It's not as if the media suddenly for no reason decided to criticise her. She gives them more than enough reason to have a go at her. If she performs poorly, then she has to face the music, otherwise, if she can't hack it, then she should get the hell out of politics.

[skully]

And shouldn't let the door hit her in the arse on the way out.

[Henry]

That would be a challenge considering the way it sticks out like it does. Is that sexist? Or FACT?
