Just an empty facade for the "true believers" to make them feel good
And the fires Any Gillard emotion on the fire tragedy would be all fake
Her greenie supporters posture on forbidding fire-breaks and burnoffs and cleanups along safety routes were a major contributor to that tragedy
Gillard just didn't think of icrying at the time as she didn't feel any emotion anyway.
It was Bligh's tears that showed Gillard there was a payoff in showing some emotion and tears so Gillard "made it up". and it was a poor performance at that
A Fabian socialist - waving a flag - while and crying.... what a joke
Waving a "down with USA" plackard and chanting "woordabardderker" would be more authentic
