Gillard did very well, on Q&A
Jun 11^th, 2012 at 11:40pm

I watched the PM on Q&A tonight, and I am pleased that she finally has seen fit to try and develop a more personal style of dialogue with the electorate.
I bemoan the fact that she is far less politically aggressive than I would like, and that she did not begin to try and develop this type of engagement a lot sooner.

When she used the example of the Mabo case, to highlight the disgusting, divisive fear mongering, engaged in by the Liberal Nationals coalition, she did so with understated dignity.
I would have loved to see her stick the boot in, like Keating would have.

The Libs are likely going to win on the false perception that they hold a high ground on moral issues, and before people blindly accept that, the immoral fear mongering, championed and spread with lies and misinformation, that they seem to take so much delight in, should be held up before all, and shown as the lowly behaviour that it really is.

Thats an hysterically inaccurate claim. Wayne Swan said so.

Gee, ALAN JONES the spruiking coalition cheerleader, telling people day in day out, they would lose their farms, that no back yards are safe. Claims it would open the floodgates to native title claims across the nation, that would put every property owner in jeopardy?????

Never happened????

I guess that leopard must have changed his spots.
You must be right progs, the Libs would never engage in such deceitful, divisive fear mongering, after all, they are the ones sitting on the Moral High Ground, they hate liars.
Unless of course the lies happen to suit their political aspirations at the time.
What is that H word again?

No-one claims that any politician is free of lies. Just too bad for labor and gillard that their timing, a new tax lie and extent (extremists for not liking our lie) were bad.

BTW the highlighted text was a reference to labor saying Abbott was fear mongering, when in fact he was telling the truth. That alone, played over and over, would go a long way to winning him the election.

All of the propaganda in the world wont change the fact that Julia Gillard is a dangerous lying political thug conducting a communist purge in Australia, waging a vicious propaganda war on the population, ceding our national sovereignty to faceless international gangsters, engaged in military conflicts we have no business in and a clear path to war with china, Apart from that she is not to bad....

Despite mozz' fear mongering comment - I thought Gillard did well on the homosexual issue.

For the first time in her tenure - Gillard stood her ground and put that Mr Thomas dude in his place. Love isn't all about marriage.

I dislike anyone who demonise other people who disagree with their views. The homosexuals and Greens often do this. Therefore I dislike their methods rather than who they are

Libs collapsed further in latest newspoll
