I don't think you should take it too personally, cat. It's clear that the level of hatred we see expressed towards the current govt, particularly Gillard, is not normal mh. I bet it's in the DSM lol

Passion for politics is normal. Hatred of politicians is creepy.

OP, why do you continuously cut and paste articles by the totally discredited and odious Larry Pickering?

Maybe you ARE Larry Pickering or doing his work for him.

At least have the decency to properly credit your loony postings.   I credit all my posts except from this person as the minute I do people like the freak and our local stalker eloi and several other luvvies BP me and have the post pulled... You may very well be one of these charming BP's under yet another new posting ID   So no credit for this opinion piece.   Have a nice day

If you can't give credit to the writer don't post the garbage and don't blame me for your idiotic tendancies.

go educate yourself on Konfrontasi

I don't need to educate myself on konfrontasi. I heard and saw what he said.  

Do you think you have better knowledge or understanding of what would happen if, as Abbott suggests, our navy is instructed to tow the boats back to Indonesian or International waters?   

What he said was Konfrontasi evolved over words.
