Reply #75 - Feb 4^th, 2015 at 7:23pm It's no worse than what Dillard did by swiping aside an experienced politician to put Nova Peris Assbone into a job she had no experience in. The same job she used to get her black boyfriend out her to bang her on taxpayer money.

Bob Hawke gave him the Companion of the Order of Australia in 1988. It's no big deal. If anything, it shows the power leftards have now got via social media outlets. There was no outrage over Hawke's decision, not to this extent anyway.

Thanks, comrade. We know all about Abbott’s support of the monarchy, but what’s he seeking to do by knighting Prince Philip?

It would be great to hear your view as a "progressive".

Well, as a "progressive" we see this as anaziwhowantstogassixmillionjews. But as a conservative he's merely attempting to reinstate or reaffirm his and the Monarchists in Aus. reverence/pride/love/whatever for the Monarchy. Conservatives believe in rank orders, and the Monarchists' rank order puts the Monarchy at the top. It was bound to piss off "progressives" but that's only a by-product of being conservative, and not its purpose. There's no conspiracy, just look for the simplest explanation.

edit: "Progressives" hate Jews, so just replace Jews with funny little brown people.

Good point, comrade: it was bound to piss off the "progressives".

Do you think, like his posters of the queen and the pope at uni, that was his sole aim?

I’m interested in your views as a deconstructionist.

Not as bad as your picture of Ayatollah Khomeini hanging in the living room next to the pictures of hubby and the Econovan.

He's received many awards, from dozens of countries (48 I think). Bob Hawke gave him the Companion of the Order of Australia in 1988. It's no big deal.

I can’t believe Bob Hawke awarded Prince Philip for military reasons. Amazing.

But as a deal, it’s now as big as it gets. Our hero, Mr Abbott, won’t survive it.

With the ironic subtitle "Australians Celebrating Australians"

      Name: PHILIP, Prince Philip

      Award: Companion of the Order of Australia

      Post-nominal: AC

      Date granted: 13 June 1988

Ah yes! Dumb we may be, but stupid we're not!

Oh, I read it. Did you say "leftard" screeching?

We "progressives" believe in solidarity, comrade.
