If the Libs had nothing to do with this, they would be vehemently denying it, and they aren't.

Local talkback host, Neil Mitchell, condemned it, and said IF it came from the Libs, it was very foolish, BUT he also kept saying it could be labor dirty tricks.

Shameful attempt at trying to muddy the waters with NO basis to make such a claim other than to try and create doubt and confusion, where none existed until they invented the conspiracy theory to try and ameliorate the culpability of the Libs.

Abbott made a pathetic mealy mouthed statement saying the people of Australia deserve better than this, whether it be some scatological board outside a restaurant, or vulgar jokes at union meetings.
Again, pathetically trying to misdirect responsibility away from his party, and trying to change it into noble Tony watching out for those foul mouthed unionists.

What they should be doing is tracking down the culprit, and make them apologise.
In the meantime Abbott, and Mal Brough, whose fund raiser it was displayed at, should be apologising on behalf of the Libs.

This is probably where they should start looking:

Many obviously havn't seen the vetting process for a menu at that type of function.

It would not have been used if it hadn't been approved up to the top level.

Yes: that's probably how I'd describe the Liberal Party too.

Now THAT was funny!

So Swannie can call Hockey fat

Gillard didn't even make a comment about the Budgie Smuggler story

But Gillard gets all precious with a menu item
