Got a good laugh out of this one, he sure nailed her. Poor Bill had to try to cobble up some kind of response that didn't make him look like the empty showbag his comrades know he is.
Rowan Deans nails the posturing of Plibersek:
Authorities within the Australian Labor Party were scrambling this week to try to contain an outbreak of the deadly Pliberbola virus, with frantic calls for the exposed leadership of Bill Shorten to be immediately quarantined…
The Pliberbola crisis came after Mr Shorten recklessly wandered into the national security debate with no protection against the extreme risk of being infected by a deadly dose of bipartisanship, caused by getting too close to Tony Abbott.
“Pliberbola is the most virulent strain of undergraduate socialism the world has ever seen,” said a spokesman for Mr Shorten…
The virus is believed to have mutated in the 1970s in the Democratic Republic of Marrickville in a freakish contact between batty undergraduates and hard-core Marxist union enforcers, or apes, which in turn infected the gibbering idealists of the Greens.
How the virus crossed the species barrier to infect normal, sane, rational human beings is not known, although the first identifiable case has long been rumoured to be a large man with a booming voice known only as Gough.

This is where the Tanya Pilbersek stuff comes from. Repeated here as if it is fact, when it is not.
The Australian (known for a certain bias)
ALP opens national issues split
17 October
TANYA Plibersek is using fear of Ebola coming to Australia, compassion about thousands of deaths in west Africa and growing global alarm to differentiate Bill Shorten’s Labor from Tony Abbott on national security.
Concern about Ebola, issues such as border checks or quarantine, whether to try to stop the virus in Africa and whether Australia is capable of dealing with the disease are all grounds to make new arguments and mark out new political territory.
With a blurring of the lines between the involvement in Iraq against Islamic State terrorists and the development of a moral equivalence between the two threats, Labor’s deputy leader is appealing to growing domestic fears. Plibersek is also appeasing large parts of the party, MPs and members, who feel that since the Islamic State threat emerged the Opposition Leader, and his left-wing deputy, have been too close to the Prime Minister on military action in Iraq.
Abbott has praised Shorten for his solid bipartisan support on national security, even describing him as a “patriot”. But some of the ALP left are worried Shorten is going too far. Plibersek even faced hostile questioning on the ABC for her bipartisan support for the action against Iraq and new security laws.

Nuture or nature? My mother wouldn't allow us to use the word hate.

The only hate and vicious attacking is coming from the left on here. I have not attacked anyone. I have not posted a vicious attack and l come back from it to post more hate. If you can't address the discussion then why are you all still here posting YOUR hate?
The topic is Plibersek using a humanitarian crisis to score cheap political points and she's been called out for it.

Isn't everything on the internet true?

Maybe, but it was on this daily telegraph page too.
