Earlier Tony Abbott appeared to not condemn the comments on Mr Husic's page.


Asked about Mr Husic's use of the Koran at an official swearing in ceremony at Government House Mr Abbott simply said: "I respect his choice".


"I'm not familiar with it," Mr Abbott said of the abuse. "But as I said, I respect his choice and I think the Australian people should as well."


In a statement to News Limited a few hours later the Opposition Leader said: "Any abuse of Ed Husic is completely unacceptable".

Sounds like his minders let him know that the first response was not strong enough.

I do believe that Mr Abbott could have been a little more committed in his condemnation of this - not that I expected him to comment at all, but if you do (and he did), then do it properly.



 


He was too mbusy rubbing his hands together about another distraction that enables him to continue being a policy free zone.

these stories are going to keep piling up from now on in, the inventive minds of journalists are going to attempt to discredit anyone they can. Zbbott says publicly 'i condemn this' but even that is a way of bringing it to attention.. 'look.. they have a moslem !!'.
