Another Political Thread.

the_great_she_elephant — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 04:24:08 GMT

Sing a song of politics - a season full of woe.

Libs and Labs and Greenies, going toe to toe.

As the day approaches, they all begin to brawl,

What a sorry spectacle to set before us all.

Julia's in the tax office, trying to make us leaner,

Tony's in the boardroom, cosying up to Gina,

Christine's in the garden, talking to the pixies,

Time for the electorate to blow them all to bitses. (metaphorically speaking of course)

howard's former chief of staff reckoned that australians should be kickin' her (meanin' julia) to death, some strange reason never got to page 1 of the murdoch press.

Did he add a 'metaphorical' disclaimer though?;-)

Bag 'em All

The Long and the Short and the Tall

Bag all the Pollies in Red Green & Blue

(To the Tune of Macnamara's Band) - BTW, great thread.

(NOTE: ALP will cop it too when time allows, so keep your shirt on LNP voters= this is called Parody)

Oh, me name is Tony Abbott, I'm the leader of the Libs
Although we’re not articulate, we're good at telling fibs
We’ll nag the Aussie people until they get our point
If we can’t have the power, then we’ll wreck the Blo*dy joint

Oh, Stop the Taxes on the rich & send the boats away
Give away our mineral wealth & make the punters pay

For all the infrastructure, all the waste & all the strife

Unless you’re Gina Rinehart, you’ll be paying all your life

Oh, the propaganda’s thick & fast, & no facts come into play
If we can’t win, we’ll hunt them out, the mud sticks anyway
We’ll slander and defame them, till everyone gets the point
If we can’t have the power, then we’ll wreck the Blo*dy joint.

Monman, you seriously need to get out more and have fun...nobody likes a killjoy

"Usual group"....There's only me and the She Elephant posting ditties and I haven't been around for years = Blows that theory eh what?...lmao. But feel free to (Follow your preferred leader) & generalise your disdain to anyone you might not happen to agree with....as for vanity, that's more for the Narcissists of this world who think there are no other opinions or means of expression but their own - Sound familiar?

You best condescend us some more though....'cause we're obviously not real good with Subtlety...:-x:^O

Plenty more where the above came from....

As for condecending, is the truth condecending or is it too hard to swallow,.

You are a prolific political poster, what's your defence of this post. As for the "haven't been around for years" who mentioned that anywhere. Ridicule & name calling OK is it?

Re: Another Political Thread.

cueperkins — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 01:49:39 GMT

Whose truth? yours?

Prolific? I don't post on any other site actually....not on Twaddle, not on Faceache and not here generally.....I'd hardly call that prolific....by comparison, I understand at least four posting IDs on this forum spamming right wing dogma, are doing the same on other sites.

That's what you might call prolific....but keep huffing and puffing...you clearly need to release some of that pent up rage somewhere.

Monman, I don't know I you are aware of it, but most of the best known and best loved nursery rhymes in the English language started life as very adult pieces of political satire.

Re: Another Political Thread.

the_great_she_elephant — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 04:05:28 GMT

Hey diddle diddle, they're all on the fiddle,

They think we're a nation of dorks,

They lie and they cheat and they're full of deceit.

Let's hear it again for Guy Fawkes.

Politics is full of shonks,
Canberra's broken out in fights.
Julia is wearing Glasses
Ducking upper cuts and rights.
Tony Abbott Dyes his Hair
But his policies aren’t there
Integrity, where are you....???

TGSE: "Monman, I don't know I you are aware of it, but most of the best known and best loved nursery rhymes in the English language started life as very adult pieces of political satire."

I do actually TGSE, and many of them were clever/subtle.

Those were the days, but not today/here

Nice One TGSE -Got another one rolling around in my head - (so much material on the news to work with on a daily basis=it's a parody gold mine)......takes no skill whatsoever as you know...just mindless ditties that pop right out of your brain when you least expect it, like word salad......Better out than In I always say....

Hey btw this 'ignore' function works a treat.

Too bad more people don't take advantage of it. - Works for me

Six Drops of essence of Labor

Five Drops of LNP sauce

When the voting’s done, will the BS stop?

Of course, ha ha, of course;-)

Now for a tincture of Greenie

with a thought for our rural townships

For without a touch of Greenie, Pollies might destroy Oz,

=Woops Apocolypse

better hold your vote, consider your pick

“With choices so bad it’s making you sick”

What have we done?......Hung Parliament !! more years of fun
