poprocks96  said about 1 month ago:

Maybe when you do a search your dickheads threads shoudl be included?


toadphoney  said about 1 month ago:

It wasn't a very good thread.


poprocks96  said about 1 month ago:

Nor is this.

Carry on.

Depends if he's going to justify himself or if his old cohorts are going to knife him.


andyr  said about 1 month ago:

this one's better by virtue of being able to be seen by the half of the board who have matt on dickhead


outerspacextrapnel  said about 1 month ago:

Good point andyr. I'm looking forward to it. I'll be able to scream at the television at their smugness knowing they're now powerless.


mathieson  said about 1 month ago:

Shame they couldn't get Janette on camera - her whims appeared to have more influence than the country's actual needs.

i've got that mike and the mechanics song in my head.


poprocks96  said about 1 month ago:

The promo for it is awesome, where Costello is trying to sum it up in one word but really worried someone else may have already used the word.

I doubt it. Gutless swine.

Tonight, 8.30pm on ABC.


poprocks96  said about 1 month ago:

Lets see what Fran Kelly can dish up.


mathieson  said about 1 month ago:

Asked to sum up Howard in a word Tony Abbott apparently replies: ''magnificent''.


steveholt  said about 1 month ago:

No matter what Abbott does I hate him more and more. No chance of redemption ever. What a fucking brown nose.

Looking forward to this - given the events of the past 11 to 12 years there's alot of explaining to do.


questionmark  said about 1 month ago:

if it's anything like labor in power it should be good. the characters in that sure didn't pull their punches when dumping on their colleagues, and that was while they were still in government (although facing what they thought was certain electoral defeat. they won.)

I reckon the scene of him winning in 2004 showed the difference between the ALP and the Liberal followers.

Advance Australia Fair vs Adv-ah-nce Australia Fair

Did you notice Janette was launching into Australia like an Oz Idol hopeful?


Modi  said 38 days ago:

Yeah. And the young Howard daughter doesn't look anything like hollyc.


aloha  said 38 days ago:

howard + sigrid thornton = hollyc

My god Reith is obvious when he lies. Every time he's presented with a situation where he's clearly lying he just does his big evil jolly laugh and blusters, ''How ridiculous! I don't think I've ever [...] in my life!'' Very convincing Peter.


needlestrasse  said 38 days ago:

Question: Who is Howard's most vile former advisor?

a) Max Moore-Wilton b) Grahame Morris c) Gerard Henderson (not seen in The Howard Years - how it must be eating him up)


outerspacextrapnel  said 34 days ago:

It makes me regret not punching Peter Reith in the face when I had the opportunity.

Dame Elisabeth Murdoch weighs in on Howard:

''I'm very critical of him. He wrecked the party and himself. He just couldn't let go and I think he believed he could win, but he was completely out of touch. I blame Janette. I think she's very ambitious.''

sister  said 30 days ago:

urchinmink  said 30 days ago:

Did you get the book today, Pops?


poprocks96  said 30 days ago:
