"It was a ridiculous and very worrying statement for a would-be prime minister to make."
Hi Misty there's been plenty of silly statements made by politicians over the years, PM's included.
"by way of personal instinct, I have an inherent distaste for grandiose rhetorical statements, which don't have any substantive dimension to them" - Rudd
"This is the recession we had to have" - Keating
"By 1990 no Australian child will be living in poverty" - Hawke
"The ABC is for "Australians", the SBS is for ethnics" - Fraser
"It's no good crying over spilt milk; all we can do is bail up another cow." - Chifley
