So on your first day running the country you'd....

...want to go over the books right? Or maybe you'd be bringing your ministers together? Getting their portfolios together?  Or perhaps meeting with your policy makers and strategists to determine the week/month/year ahead? Most likely you would be going over the most vital portfolios. You know the ones? The ones that are important to the country - health, education, infrastructure - that kind of thing.

But what crucial and vital tasks is the rabbit going to do?

Well lets see. On his first day he will: 'begin with instigating the carbon repeal process." Which of course will simply mean coming up with a new name for the same thing.

And then on the second day he will: "talk to the navy about new instructions for our naval forces in the seas to our north,'' which will simply be a meeting where the navy explains international law to dumb dumb.

Are these 2 topics REALLY the priorities for this country? Or ANY country? Really??

Well, he might begin that process, but you know how things are; that process might stretch out in time a bit.

Howard did make that infamous statement about never ever having a GST, but then he went to an election on a platform of introducing the GST which was meant to replace and consolidate many of our other taxes. That removal of those other taxes didn't happen or not  on a scale to be memorable and we just got stuck with another great big tax..

Exactly!

What will they take away from us?? what handout will I no longer get?? what non deserving freebie will be abolished??

Where exactly did anyone, other than yourself, post about that?

Oh, and by the way, self praise is no recommendation (an articulate well written post)
