Does Kevin Rudd have a problem with women?

[idlewhile]

The evidence is mounting that not only does Rudd have a problem with people he believes are beneath him but he seems to have a problem with women.

The RAAF cadet who was reduced to tears because Rudd didn't get his preferred meal on board a RAAF  flight, the tantrum with the hairdryer he couldn't get, the appalling rudeness to Ms Kenneally whilst she was premier, the 3 year crusade to destroy Julia Gillard, the rude & arrogant way he treated the make up artist & now the brush off of a young woman trying to ask a question & was jeered at because she wasn't a "working journalist" after she was given permission to move up front & ask a question by Rudds staff.

We are not privvy to the reign of terror he perpetrated on his staff in the PM's office but were witness to 80% of them fleeing his employ.

We have heard about his massive ego & his filthy mouth but the disdain he seems to have for women is worrying.

This election is too much about the leaders and little about policies.

actually I don't think she does, she has removed it hasn't she?  She is a paid employee and I would say that her bosses would not be very happy that she put that out there, regardless of who it was, she should have stayed professional.  She was paid to do make up not comment on such stuff. Im tipping I know who she votes for.  It was most likely an innocent comment, she wouldnt have realised the media would run with it.

not sure who she was working for but if it were a television station she would def sign a confidentiality agreement.  I know that for a fact.

the other thing is, no one is turning anything on the woman.................. I just want to know what he did or said!

if he was the exact opposite of 'her opinion/view/description of the others' ...

He in her opinion wasn't absolutely lovely, didn't engage in genuine conversation with her nor acknowledge that she did a good job and in her opinion wasn't very appreciative  

and in her opinion/view...that equates to treating her badly .

what a little precious..

Not true, I know women who find him attractive, just as others find Abbott attractive.

I wonder did anyone concern themselves about Bob Hawke being attractive, or John Howard? and ask if they thought they had sex appeal? I am betting not....................the concerns were real ones.

yes ...which would seem to show that people have different ideas of what may constitute so many things including being absolutely lovely ,genuine conversation and showing appreciation 

the OP asked if Kevin Rudd had a problem with women.

some may have answered the matter re the make-up artist when they said that "some have a problem with him" ?

Poor Kevin, every day he seems more erratic, up one minute & down the next, a truly frightening spectacle.

He prob watched the Lib/Nat campaign launch & went through 6 tubes of lip balm due to his incessant lip licking.

Anybody noticed that after the hair flick video his lip licking has taken over as his most obessive trait. Next we'll be witness to the paper hangers  hand movements getting more expansive & erratic.

Warning to all women, keep out of his way until after the election.

Poor Kevin, we really do need to talk about Kevin but let's leave that for after the election.
