rudd gearing up for new challenge: pyne, page-32

Hmmmm iron mike.

Under Rudd/Gillard

...Historic pension increase

...Historic paid parental leave

...Rescission of obnoxious workChoices

...Education reforms

...Huge Infrastructure Works

...Record low interest rates

...Low unemployment

...Cash to families and pensioners during GFC

Just a few of the positives. Yes they have made mistakes as occurs when a global crisis strikes but the reality is that Australia has weathered the storm better than elsewhere. So the picture is a tad exaggerated in your post but thats OK you are entitled to tell it as you perceive it, notwithstanding your rose coloured glasses lol.

Mike, imo your best post was the one about the neurosurgeon that found the light after having fallen from the high life and was inspired by the Dalai Llama. Might be a good thing to again reflect on that.

cheers
