LOL.
The GFC money was Costello's not Swan's. The Coalition said they would have pump primed the economy but not with the largesses demonstrated recklessly, as shown by history,by Swan.
AND, as for KPI's, surely you jest. Don't mention the Carbon Tax; the MRRT et al and the country's burgeoning debt.
Also, you wrote: "Sadly for Peter Costello; he can make no such claim"
He wasn't in power at the time. So that is an irrelevnt comment.
Your reference to th title of Worlds best treaurer has been shown to be a joke title ala Keating and now Goose.
I disagree with your general portayal of Costello and I could go on, however must point out that thansk to the prudential control of the economy Wayne had enough money in the coffers to (over)steer us through the GFC and now in the FF that he can try to pilfer in order to prop up his completely illusory "surplus".
