Tony Jones is a man of steel. Stood up against men who throw shoes.

Wouldn't mind having 5 minutes alone in a room with that long haired hippy ****. Have a feeling my shoes wouldn't miss the mark.

Lol, keep thinking like that and you lot will ensure she's back next time too.

Love how it upsets the unwashed when you point out they got less seats at the election. Get used to it.

Burgey · 25-10-2010, 10:04 PM

Less seats than who?

benchmark00 · 25-10-2010, 10:07 PM

Take a stab.

Burgey · 25-10-2010, 10:10 PM

Party with the most seats in the HOR is the ALP. Then the Libs, then the bastardised LNP, the Country Libs or whatever they're called, the Nats, the Greens and the Indies.

Cool for one side to need other parties to govern, but not the other, eh mate?

Point proven.

Burgey · 25-10-2010, 10:31 PM

That's not a car wash.

You lent that guy the gum boots you go around rooting sheep in. Well done you

Benchy's right. We bite but he doesn't. I mean he didn't bite with regards to an arguments about whether Joe Hockey is still "the best MP in Australia" after his recent performance. Must have got his treasury training from the back of a cereal box.

Bring back Costello I reckon

...small difference was that our coaltion was known, consumated, before the election.

Was thinking today that if I'd been in the audience I hope that I would have had the presence of mind to piff my Blundstones at the wanker and hit him in the nose (the hippie, not Howard), given that apparently that's the way to show your disapproval of someone's actions. Would have been a nice Lee Harvey Oswald-Jack Ruby moment.

Very big of Hicks to pop up with a question in a medium where he doesn't have to answer any of the questions he studiously avoided answering in his book. Things like explaining the discrepancy between his contemporaneous account of his fighting in Kashmir and his sanitised version in his "biography". Traitorous scumbag - should still be rotting in prison.
