you are all disgusting for calling it a stunt

no matter where you political compass points - volunteering should be appreciated by all Australians

Abbott's been doing this since 2000 - this is in addition to his duties as a Minister and now Opposition leader

Labor and Greens are dogs - worse than dogs for condemning Abbott

It is a stunt and a very poor one at that....Since Abbott has been exposed to scrutiny all we see from the Mad Monk is these photo opps and bullshit stunts.....Abbott is not above criticism and has shown time and time again he is an opportunist wanker.....Your hero is as pathetic as you Macca!!!

lol please dont cry. Abbott didnt mean to show up how pathetic gillard is.

What a piss weak comment from a piss ant prick.....If you think Abbott stunt reflects badly on Julia Gillard for any reason you are too stupid for words.....Abbott is an opportunist much like your pathetic self!!!

Ohh calling me a prick. Abbott saving Australians while the lazy sexist biatch gillard sits on her A watching it all unfold, letting the men do all the life saving work (het Abbott is a life saver in so many ways), must be making people a tad bit jealous and are starting to lash out.

Dont worry, im pretty sure you will get your Abbott is bad angle to persuade a couple of the gang-greeners who were looking at Abbott with hero status.

If the ankle was fair dinkum he'd have done the job without calling the press. Phony Tony's office put out a press release the ankle was doing this, what a low life scum to capitalise on people dying.

Well that post achieved a level of insanity not seen outside of a corpulent whitely post. Grin

I doubt very much you would quietly sit down if abbott 'had done the job without calling a press conference'. You pack of loons would have gone into prolonged mass hysteria demanding to know where the 'ankle' was and what he was doing in these dangerous times.

Maybe you have a sane person read your posts before you hit the send button.

Ohhh you poor darlin. You want to condemn Abbott in peace. No retribution for a guy who has done much for society with volunteering.

Well you can shove that up your azz because if you want to bash Abbott for actually doing something, then that little sexist biatch of yours who lets the men do the life saving will be condemned.

When gillard called Abbott a misogynist, she did it because she is a sexist biatch, so calling her one is not the issue. The issue is that gillard only like weak men. Hairdressers to be precise. Strong men who call out her weaknesses, cop an ear full of her sexist rhetoric and to the point where you cant even look at your watch for christ sake.

Keep crying, it aint doing anything for you.

phil I dont get why this is such a problem with the left...you all sound so spiteful..

I would guess he would not be allowed to do this if he was PM...

so no one expects gillard to join the fire brigade..

I dont get whats the problem?????

I am sure if this was Brown you would be praising him to high heaven...

if you dont like someone..thats fine.. but when you see all this spite and meanness it comes across as hatred....and I think we have enough of that in this world..

dont like him dont vote for him..

I dont like gillard and I wouldnt vote for her.. but should she be out there fighting bushfires.

I trust I could at least give her some credit..

Impossible. It's gotten out of hand. Another one that made me shake my head in despair, that I saw today:

Quote:

Sports network ESPN have been forced to apologise over the actions of commentator Brent Musberger for fawning over the girlfriend of star quarterback AJ McCarron on live television.

On the biggest day in US college football, the BCS Championship, ESPN's broadcast showed several shots of McCarron's partner, Katherine Webb. Musberger could hardly contain his excitement.

"You see that lovely lady there," Musberger started.

"Wow, I'm telling you, you quarterbacks, you get all the good-looking women. What a beautiful woman. Wow! Whoa!

"If you're a youngster at Alabama, start getting the football out and throw it around the backyard with pops."

Webb, an Auburn University graduate and winner of Miss Alabama 2012, became an overnight sensation after the broadcast.

She gained over 100,000 Twitter followers within a few hours, eclipsing her boyfriend. McCarron even had to fend off other players on Twitter who were openly making a move on her.

There were mixed reactions to the commentary. ESPN released an apology saying Musberger, 73, "went too far" in referring to Webb, 23.

"We always try to capture interesting storylines and the relationship between an Auburn grad who is Miss Alabama and the current Alabama quarterback certainly met that test," ESPN spokesperson Mike Soltys said.
"However, we apologize that the commentary in this instance went too far and Brent understands that."

That's right - he had to apologise for saying a beauty pagenat winner was beautiful. Roll Eyes

whether you think the false accusation is "something" or "nothing" reflects the parenting you received

When you make false accusations - you apologise. This is when good parenting happens

When you make false accusations and don't apologise and/or have someone else say it's "essentially nothing" then that reflects terrible parenting

Oh. You're one of those.

Is mindnumbing political stupidity a parental failure too? I'm not suggesting this is you, but thought I'd ask since you seem to have all the answers.

While I'm at it, do you know anything about electrochemical action potential in neurons? Because I have to say, I'm struggling.

THAT, is an oft perpetuated MYTH

The Greens do NOT oppose controlled back burning

Jim Reiher
Mon, 16/02/2009

We need to set the record straight on this one. The Greens accept the need for controlled back burning. Of course we do!

The Australian Greens policy states:

Quote:

The Australian Greens want effective habitat management, including
ecologically appropriate use of fire.

The Greens expressly support controlled and appropriate fuel reduction burns

that have been part of Australia’s landscape and indigenous culture for tens of thousands of years.

Scientifically-based burning protects lives and property, is good for the environment
and, if adequately supported by Governments, would create thousands of jobs in park management.

The Greens urge extreme care and extensive planning to ensure that ill-advised burning does not jeopardise lives and property as has, tragically, happened on many occasions.

In their submission to the 2003 Victorian Bushfire Inquiry, the Australian Greens Victoria (North East Region), clearly and strongly called for fuel reduction burns:

An effective strategic fuel-reduction burning strategy is required based on scientific fire ecology and fire behaviour information.

It is critical that any revised approach to fuel-reduction burning is scientifically based, drawing on the expertise and further research of fire ecologists and fire behaviour scientists. The goal must be to produce a sustainable strategy for fuel-reduction management that will protect biodiversity and moderate the effects of wildfire to an acceptable level for protection of people and assets.

The Tasmanian Greens call for:

Ensuring that fuel reduction burning to protect property is carried out in the appropriate season to limit likelihood of higher intensity fires in dry periods
.[3]

The Greens are conscious that appropriate fuel reduction burning is extremely resource intensive.

Proper management of national parks and reserves requires more funding from State and Federal Governments. That is what the Greens want.
