Caretaker Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull yesterday blamed an alleged “scare campaign” by Labor concerning LNP threats to Medicare, for the swing against the government in the election results thus far.
Caretaker Attorney -General George (Bookcase) Brandis blamed Twitter for the alleged denigration of political discourse that apparently contributed to the government’s disappointment. Which is a bit rich coming from the man who declared that everyone has the inalienable right to be a bigot and thinks meta data is the address on an envelope not its contents, but whatever.

Caretaker Immigration Minister Peter Dutton (known as the Brussel Sprout or Mr Potato Head, either way it’s a vegetable) blamed unions for his slide in popularity in the Queensland seat of Dickson.
Several other ministers, including Julie Bishop and Scott Morrison, also blamed Labor’s “scare tactics” for the government’s fall from grace. Some have even blamed the stupidity of voters, a self-defeating attribution of responsibility one would think.
The complete absence of the media from the LNP’s jaundiced, wounded, blaming gaze is remarkable. It tells me that I was right to detect overwhelming bias in their favour from almost every media outlet including, unfortunately, sections of the ABC.
Tony Abbott, that desiccated piece of hyena scat, did obscene things with a sizzled sausage and left early to plot his next thrust for LNP leadership and deja vu all over again.
Such is the arrogance of these entitled drongos that it does not, for one moment, enter their drongo consciousness that they might have alienated voters all by themselves. It has to be somebody else’s fault.
The inability to listen to criticism is a boring characteristic in an individual. It’s boring because such people are in significant ways stunted. There’s nothing more valuable than a bit of criticism: in the emotionally mature it provokes thought and inspires the birth of change, and as I quoted a few days ago, he/she who isn’t busy being born is busy dying. The LNP is busy dying, and it has been for quite some time.
I’m struggling to recall a government that has made quite such a spectacular and total cockup as has this one. I’m not referring to unforgivable decisions such as taking us to war on the spurious platform of non-existent weapons of mass destruction, or taking us to an election based on the imagined threat of a few miserable, hounded and tormented people attempting to escape intolerable circumstances, but rather the internal clusterfucks that have rent the LNP’s fabric in ways that make the ALP’s internecine strife of a few years ago look pretty average, really.
And let us not forget that despite the ALP’s leadership debacles, they still got phenomenal amounts of legislation through. This cannot be said for the LNP, which has yet to resolve the 2014 budget.
However, the LNP is maintaining some consistency, you have to give them that much. They’ve blamed Labor ever since they took office, so there’s a three-year precedent. They’ve barely missed a beat in their blaming, making a smooth transition to blaming the ALP for the current election debacle and no doubt whatever the outcome, they’ll continue to blame Labor without so much as a hiccough.
This is, really, their area of expertise. Good governance? Not so much.

With the fake Medicare texts and other phone calls and text messages could this in future be used to harass voters and change how people vote.Do you get pissed with this spam.

The header on the "No Place For Sheep" web page tells you a lot about their credibility as serious journalists and whether we should be taking their drival seriously.

Something fishy about these labor leaders. Look at Julia eating her pooie. Anybody would think she was afraid to get her hands dirty.

Why does Shorten want Malcolm Turnbull to quit damage like this hasn't happened since Telstra's "three amigos" no could be wrong Australia post.

News confrmng a likely four One Nation Senators in the New Upper House. Half of the lot just elected will not be up for re-election for another six years...

Text messages on landline phones are really annoying.

Had to laugh at Dutton claiming that "Bikies, Union thugs and Labor" are responsible for him nearly loosing his seat. What? The fact that he's an absolute knob-head never came into the equation?

 

[wide eyed and legless]

Knob head, that just might qualify him as the next Liberal leader.

 

[Bribie G]

He's an ex QLD cop, therefore he knows best, no argument, and you are an insignificant dried up piece of snot that deserves a good flogging, out of the reach of CCTV cameras of course.

I remember the Joh era cops up there. Jeez... the hair just went up on the back of my neck.

God help us if Pauline Hitler oops, damn auto correct, Hanson, gets 4 white supremists, oops, there goes that auto correct again, I meant Senators, into the Reich Chancellory, sorry, it just happens automatically, I meant, into Parliament.

Yep Hanson's just kicked off with a demand for a Royal Commission into Islam. The Oxleymoron us back in the saddle.
