Since the election win by Mr Abbott the hate threads on here have multiplied expendentially as the penny drops that Labor has lost.
Saying that the right leaning people started it is not the same, C&P articles that exposed just how bad Labor was in govt is not name calling. The name calling the left has indulged in since Tony Abbott became leader of the opposition has been prolific and histrionic.
The myopic posts saying the loss is not as bad as they thought is ludicrous, please people read something anything about the history of elections before you drift off into la la land.
No matter what the coalition do from here on in it will be vilified by the left & it will be on here so the left can assuage it's deep feelings of loss.
a piece by Rita Panashi:
THE full blown unhinging, when it came, was as predictable as it was pathetic. Last week, as the election drew closer and certain defeat loomed large, the lunatic left gave up any pretence of intelligent discourse and resorted to scaremongering and deranged slandering.
The tone was set by Julia Gillard and then Kevin Rudd with personal attacks on Abbott's character. Both Labor and the Greens sought to demonise Abbott as a one-dimensional bogeyman to be feared and despised.
Paradoxically the fervour with which Abbott was attacked ended up endearing him to the masses. Reasonable folk were left wondering why he was so harshly criticised for benign comments such as telling a reporter to "calm down" or remarking light-heartedly that a candidate had a certain "sex appeal". The words didn't match the indignation.
Trying to paint a Rhodes Scholar as an unthinking buffoon was a stupid line of attack. The so-called gaffes were dismissed by the electorate and in the end Abbott went into Saturday's election as preferred PM, something that even his most optimistic supporters had not anticipated.
But the election result will do nothing to dampen the zealous enthusiasm of the Abbott-loathing fringe dwellers. If anything their deranged disdain will only be energised by Abbott's prime ministership.
One wonders whether the multitude of socialist luvvies who pledged to flee Australia if Abbott ever became PM are currently packing their bags - although their departure won't be much of a loss to the nation. We have no shortage of moral posturers and out-of-touch agenda pushers.

Not sure if you mean S and the Mrs, or S and P
I heard that if it goes to the vote of the members, that Albo will prevail. And Tanya has said she favours Albo. Go figure.

We should probably stop them from breeding too - in case they multiply "expendentially". (a little gem from the OP - if anyone can remember back that far.):smileywink:
