How the hell did it get this bad?

Hmmm I guess any polly worth their keep, gets shafted by some snotty nosed want to be.
I also reckon they have become so far detached from reality they honesty have no idea how the rest of us live.
They all have good intentions when they first enter politics, but that gets clouded by party policies and interest groups.
Sad hey.

Just think that Bill Shorten is next in line to replace Gillard.... and we have Abbot as the alternative.

How the hell did it get this bad?

this is the worst thing - its not like we can wait till the next election for things to get better - abbot is a tool of the highest order - bring back turnbull - or im voting for the monster raving loony party

Ok, now that last one is a comedy skit hey. It cannot be real.
I am starting to think Pauline Hanson would have made a good politician!

I agree here. I've already made my point to to him as we solicit funding for work we do up here. There are a lot of linkages to the NBN hype which is a load of Shit in remote areas. I hope he takes the leadership back and we get a realistic NBN service up here. But not in the near term they tell us...

Turnbull won't be back as leader. He was hopeless. Even Rudd ran rings around him. Turnbull would be better off joining the Labor party, as that is where he seems to fit best. In fact, with Turnbull as leader of the ALP, it would be Labor's best chance of winning an election for the foreseeable future.
