Let us hope the Anthony Albanese is a more balanced person to handle the of so important portfolio of Communications.

The one good thing, the only good thing to come out of the latest Labor debacle is that Stephen Conroy that stinking weasel and enemy of free Speech has fallen on his own sword.

This scumbag represented the biggest threat to Freedom of Speech along with Julia Gillard that this Country has ever seen.

What a great team. Joel Fitzgibbon, the MP who couldn't afford to buy his own suits. Tanya the perpetual undergraduate and sisterhood member who didn't back another member of the sisterhood.
Anthony Albanese, the Maltese pigeon. Tony Burke, the man who talks funny. Bill Shorten, don't turn your back on him.

What a team.

Certainly will be, Rudd is a great campaigner. Imagine (though I doubt it would happen) if he took Labor over the line. He would be elevated to Labor hero and Gillard as a wrecker.

C'mon, feigned indignation doesn't suit you. Ever since we made fun of the redhead from Queensland because of the way she spoke personal attacks are OK. Are we supposed to forget about that? Sorry, my memory works just fine. How's yours?
