He often refers to the current PM, Ms. Gillard, as unqualified on matters of family as she has no children.

Just out of curiosity - how exactly is Gillard qualified to speak on matters of family in the sense of being a parent and having kids and so forth? Or at least, how is she equally qualified, compared to someone who is actually a parent?
Would you take family/parenting advice from any other industrial lawyer/union official?

Gillard gets her parenting advise from people smugglers.

You are completely missing the point, Soren. The Labor government does not suffer from a lack of Ministers with parenting experience. Good leaders can empathise and take advice, they govern for all, irrespective of shared experiences. Abbott is dog whistling. He's uneccesarily highlighting her lack of children, deliberately appealing to known prejudices within our community.

Sure, Abbott has kids but as a member of parilament for most of that time, how qualified is he to give advice? He spent most of that time away from his kids and left his wife to raise the kids, it was once said that a parliamentarians wife is like a single mother ... not exactly a role model for a father now is he. If anything, I'd say his opinion is skewed by his experiences. Because he has kids he thinks he doesn't need to take advice and is less inclined to listen to others.

This is contrary to the findings of roughly 97% of climate scientists who study the effects of man-made pollutants on our global ecosphere. (Quote from the US Blogger).

Ah, the old "97% of climate scientists" again.

And strangely, when you click on the link provided, it says nothing about the "97%". That's because he's trying to hide the facts.

So, let's look at those facts shall we:

" ... the ’97% of active climate scientists’ quote/soundbite actually comes from a students MSc thesis, that the Doran EoS paper cites".

"Here are but just a few of many responses from scientists that actually took part in the survey, taken from the appendi of the MSc thesis:"

“..scientific issues cannot be decided by a vote of scientists. A consensus is not, at any given time, a good predictor of where the truth actually resides..”

“..The “hockey stick” graph that the IPCC so touted has, it is my understanding, been debunked as junk science..”

“..I’m not sure what you are trying to prove, but you will undoubtably be able to prove your pre-existing opinion with this survey! I’m sorry I even started it!..”

"The Doran paper has been criticised by many sceptics in the past, where a survey of 10,256 with 3146 respondents was whittled down to 75 out of 77 “expert” ’active climate researchers’ (ACR) to give the 97% figure, based on just two very simplistic (shallow) questions that even the majority of sceptics might agree with."

Without names or gender identifiers, ask anyone with kids whether they think another parent or an unmarried, childless industrial lawyer understands their lives better.

This is a representative democracy. Gillard does not represent parents. Why can't this be uttered? Bob Brown didn't represent families, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence don't represent families.

Anyway - Tea Party. What's the frothing about the Tea Party? Did they threaten to behead anyone who disrespects what they think? All you ninnies get worked up about a bunch of middle aged people with jobs who say what they think. Is it only the Gen Z (what letter are we up to anyway?), Occupy the Sofa crowd that is allowed to protest and voice their views?

What's your point, greggery. Doran surveyed a whole host of earth scientists of which climate scientists were a small subset. Not all replied, but a good chunk of them did. Of the 77 climate scientists that did reply, 75 of them accepted the AGW hypothesis. If you were at all familiar with the peer reviewed scientific literature, you'd know this sort of result is to be expected. Unfortunately, you're not overly familiar with the scientific literature and you allow the obtuse Watts to do your thinking for you.
