"Just showing the hypocrisy of the left"?

An obscure little poster on an obscure little on line forum starts a thread out of the blue titled "Obese Gillard should lose some weight", even though Gillard isnt obese and absolutely no-one has ever suggested she was so that you could "show off the hypocrisy of the left"?

I might start a thread titled "Abbott lies about travelling to another dimension" just to show the hypocrisy of the right, because , you know , the right always go on about gillard lying and all so you shouldnt complain if I call abbott a liar.

As I said in my opening post - if it's okay for Swan to bully Hockey and call him fat then why can't I call Gillard obese?

Because she isn't obese.

As usual, you're using the wrong terms.

When Swan called Hockey fat did he know his weight or did he guess by appearance?

How do you know Gillard's not obese?

btw - there's no "fat" term on that list either but that didn't stop Swan from saying it to Hockey

I'll bet you my entire year's salary that she isn't.

I think you will find that Mr Hockey used to be obese though.

But anyway, show me the PM's BMI reading that confirms she's obese and I'll write you a cheque.

I'll think you'll find that Joe Hockey was obese.

Swan called Hockey fat without a BMI so why can't I call Gillard obese without a BMI?

A BMI isn't required for "fat".

Try to keep up.

Right.
Gillard is hardly obese, Maqqa, but with the way your brain distorts everything else, it's not in the least surprising that you would think she is.

I very much doubt you're in a position to throw stones at anyone else for the way they look.

If you read the first post you would realise this is to highlight the hypocrisy of the ALP government and those who support them

They are all happy to call others fat and other names - but when the same scrutiny is placed on them they go all high and mighty

Why can't I call Gillard obese when Swan called Hockey fat.

Are you referring to the Sloppy Joe comment? Perhaps that has more to do with Hockey's political acumen than his physique.

The Sloppy Joe is your assertion

Hockey categorically says that Swan is a bully and calls him fat

Quote:

"I'm still bullied in Parliament,"Mr Hockey said. "Wayne Swan has a go at me for being fat."

It is not my "assertion." It is in the article you linked to. Do you actually read the crap you link to in your posts?

The point was no in inverted commas therefore it is an assertion.

If you want to support the assertion then that's up to you

I am referring you to the statements made in the inverted commas which reflects what Hockey said
