"Independent Nick Xenophon advises Tony Abbott back away from 'mean, nasty, dumb' budget
Senator Nick Xenophon has warned the Abbott government its "dumb" budget is toxic with a key component of the Coalition voter base.
"This has been called the toughest budget in decades, but it also seems to be one of the dumbest," the South Australian independent wrote in a budget appraisal."
Well, I'll state that Senator Nick (I've got an opinion on everything) Xenophon is in the very cosy position of never having to bear the full weight of running this country - with all the worry and huge personal effort that entails) - and has the luxury of sitting back in his cosy office, his luxury leather chair - and pontificating on absolutely everything - a sort of Solomon, of sorts, minus the ineviable nervous and physical breakdown of actually having to "do"!
No, we are not "Liberal lovers" of sorts. That puts us into the category of blindly following ideology - never ever even considering any other view than our own might, somehow, have value.
Not a peep from the Left - as their Labor idols (Rudd, Swan, Gillard, et al) were wrecking and slashing (and lying) about the real state of affairs.
The rock band spend all night trashing the hotel suite - the cleaning lady comes in next day - and SHE gets the blame??
That's what's happening here.
Just bloody-minded ornery "follow the leader" Labor's always great mentality - no questions ever conceived, let alone asked.
And so, they did what they liked.
Their adoring media mates (an army) co-conspirators. In this disastrous wreckage they've all walked off from - laughing all the way to their banks.
