If this was said by anyone from the LNP or the right the left and would be screaming the place down but NO not a word from the left for this misogynistic attack
This is a most disgusting attack from this utter nutter
Credlin does not deserve this attack on her
Palmer unrepentant on Credlin attack
Julie Bishop joined in the criticism, saying she hopes Mr Palmer reflects on his "hurtful" comments about Ms Credlin, who has been struggling with IVF treatment.
"For him to single her out is a particularly hurtful thing for him to do," she told Sky News.
Solved! Go to Solution.

"He said she would benefit from the PPL scheme, whether he's right or wrong about that is another matter."
Actually I would consider being "right" would be the heart of the matter, considering "she" would not benefit from the proposed PPL . But since when has being right (facts) been an overriding requirement for politicians and some here?.

So where are they now that Credlin, a public servant, is smeared with Palmer with innuendos and false claims on the grounds that this woman has “undue influence”?
Let’s check the twitter accounts (as at noon) of the most militant policers of misogynists.
Anne Summers: silent.
Jenna Price, journalism lecturer (!) and Destroy the Joint activist: silent.
Van Badham, Guardian writer: silent.Clementine Ford, Fairfax writer and seller of “F… Abbott” T-shirts: silent.
Tanya Plibersek, deputy Labor leader and militant opponent of meeowing: silent.
Penny Wong, Labor frontbencher: silent.
Are these women fighting for a principle or a side?
Stupid question… as they are the left and its OK to attack right leaning women....

That's not the point. The argument being used is that it was a misogynistic attack because he should know she is having no luck with IVF.
Palmer ignores that fact that she'd have a good maternity leave entitlement anyway but that's not what the attack on him or the "left" is about.

Argument by whom?
Even if he did know of her IVF problems, which he asserts he did not, ("he should know she is having no luck with IVF", WHY) his remarks do not fall in to the category of being misogynist, a cultural attitude of hatred for females,

Argument by those crying misogyny, such as the OP who thinks the "left" should be outraged.
Anyway thanks you have supported the point I was making nicely. There is no reason anyone should know about her "struggles with IVF" and his comments were not misogynistic.
