Not as if this stupidity wasn't predicted. I didn't see the cone of silence descending though, that's genius. Say nothing and hope no one asks any questions.

I love this:

The favourite surely has been the "stop the boats" line which has changed more to stopping the flow, taking the sugar off the table and going to Indonesia and engaging in what has been very (very) charitably reported by some as a diplomatic success or a "strategic retreat". It involved Mr Abbott pretty much ignoring the issue in his talks with the Indonesian president, despite it once having been so front and centre.

I guess it must have slipped his mind.

What also seems to have slipped his mind is all the numerous times he and now Minister for Immigration (and Border Control, to give him his full absurd title) Scott Morrison trumpeted as loudly and as often as they could about any asylum seeker boat arrival. Now it seems such announcements are "shipping news" for people smugglers that will only encourage more boats.

Given the Liberal Party's election campaign was based on publicising the number of boat arrivals, either Morrison and Abbott are now lying, or they were guilty for the past three years of assisting people smugglers.

Either way it's all pretty laughable, though not as funny as Morrison's latest attempt to say that the Liberal Party never had a policy of towing back the boats. It took about a two-second Google search to find evidence of Scott Morrison and Tony Abbott and other Liberal MPs happily conversing on the subject of "tow-backs" without ever feeling the need to correct the record.

It is beginning to seem that Mr Abbott's comment on Monday with regards to the boat buyback scheme that "there was some misunderstanding of the policies we took to the election" could apply across the board. And as with the boat buyback scheme, the real problem is that everyone understood it all too clearly.

First class bullshit artists... to be blunt. And the public at large were stupid enough to buy the spin.

Bring on the next election so we can send these pretenders back where they belong. Hopefully they won't do any long term damage in the meanwhile.

Pointless me making comment.
Count me out of this thread now that we have "mission accomplished."
And besides, it's quite apparent to everyone that the three of you are more than capable of holding each others' willies.

Ah Dave, admit it, you're starting to see what a bunch of tossers you helped vote in and now you're too ashamed to stick up for them...

Those who live by the sword, die by the sword - now all the lies are coming home to roost. And they've only been at this for a month. Imagine the cockups yet to come, especially from JoeLiar, the man without a clue. I wonder, is it a lie if you don't know what you are talking about, or just plain stupidity and ignorance?

Is it bias to point out the truth (pre-emptive strike)??

Only if your a political pariah. Otherwise shifty behaviour is perfectly OK.
