BOB Brown has brushed off Julia Gillard's criticism of the Greens as an extreme party, dismissing the attack as "product differentiation".

The Greens leader today denied his party posed a threat to Labor, despite plummeting support for the government on the back of its carbon tax plan.

He said the Prime Minister would benefit from working with him and urged her to adopt more Greens policies.

“The Greens are only extreme in the sense of extremely popular and growing,” he said.

“I just take the Prime Minister's comments as part of the political debate.”

Ms Gillard last night described the Greens as “extreme”, saying they were “not a party of government and have no tradition of striking the balance required to deliver major reform”.

Senator Brown said the Prime Minister was seeking to differentiate the Labor brand from that of Greens, despite her adoption of longstanding Greens' policy to tackle climate change.

So Maclaren shows his homophobic side in desperation to get attention.

Grow up little boy.

What 2 men or women do sexually in the privates of their homes is different to Bob Brown - but it is extreme for mainstream Australian males to do this to another man

Perhaps Bob Brown would then like to rename the Islamic Extremist Bombers to Islamic Differentist Bombers

Just where did he do that. ?    Damned if I can see any homophobic remarks in that news byte.

So you hate gays ... does this mental illness based hatred also go for gay liberals  running in the NSW election?

We new Liberals Hate Women, so it's understandable they hate Gays also.

Including the female and gay liberal MPs and candidates.

Then explain the title.


As the Howard government increased in MP's, the percentage of female Liberal MPs decreased. The undertone of the Liberal Party of the past have been sexist ... are they now furthering their hate towards gays?

And here is his admission of his homophobia.

Antipathy is not phobia.

It is when it is based only on learnt hate.

Homophobia comes from nurture, not nature.

I dont see any real homophobic remarks either, Greens is just a little over sensitive sometimes, and it comes off as rather amusing.

Guess it's a Liberal Party Thing ...They don't see their own sexism so guess they can't see their own homophobia.

I really don't like homosexuals flaunting their assophilia and phallic fixation.

Does that make me a bad person?

OVER time I thought of Alan Jones as a leading bad example - "There is the blokey, foul-mouthed ex-football coach; the courtly, non-swearing charmer of older women; the farmer's (miner's/union official's/teacher's) son; the thwarted prime minister; the ombudsman of Struggle Street; the Oxford orator; and the hidden homosexual, forever hunting for love among the twentysomethings.

The masking of his homosexuality is a defining feature of the Jones persona." ~smh

And now a great friend and spokesman for  Abbott.

This seems rather a tortured way to both excuse outing Alan Jones, and to get “homosexuality” and “teacher” (wink, wink) in the same sentence:

Masters came to regard the masking of Jones’ homosexuality as “a defining feature of the Jones persona” that went a long way to explaining “his lifelong habit of playing favourites” which brought undone his early great successes as a teacher and sports coach.

Would the Age connive at this disgraceful sneering and smearing if Jones was a hero of the Left?

Where are the gay groups to protest at this vilification?  ~ The Telegraph~

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnn


out comes the HATE machine... they have an election next week in NSW.


its PANIC TIME down at the greens club..carpet bowls anyone.

I find it hard to equate 11% with 'extremely popular'. The Libs got 43%. even labor got 36%. and the NSW labor party is still looking like getting TWICE that level - 22%. Is there anyone in their right mind (obviously excludes and Greens) that would call NSW labor '
extremely popular'?

typical extremist idiocy from the Greens.

goodness me veg you know so much more than most on here, and about most on here,..


where is the links you have with all this bizarre information about Alan Jones.. to be honest I have never read a bad word about him except he is right and not left.. the last time I looked that was neither a crime nor a bad thing..

however as you tell us some dreadful stuff there I think we are entitled to know the worst..

so I will look for you enlightening myself at least thank you.

you know if you are going to publish stuff like this about someone you should post the link as well as its defamation but I am sure you are aware of that
