You should really ensure that the phool is there somehow.
It would be fun watching an Emeritus Prof. make fun of the 140 minus 100 IQ phool.
Wonder if he could do as good of job as Cactus?
As an aside, notice how brilliant GD is now? Hint, Hint.

Prepare to be physically ill when Delahunty professes her eternal and undying love for Colonel Gaddafi
“Oh he’s so dreamy, but his moustache is as big a mine though”

Should ask Jim Flynn why he is a supporter of the Alliance Party after all these years. High IQ or not, there must be a reason behind this. The Nat guy is going to get smashed… poor fulla won’t have a chance with that lot.
Will Catherine sing again?

As further evidence that Sue Bradford is nowhere as barking mad as Delahunty, I heard the former not exactly endorsing – but certainly not outright rejecting – the “take him out with a sniper” approach suggested on some talkback radio station as a way of dealing with Quaddafi/Gaddaffi/Khaddaffi…Dont think that approach to dealing with foreign problems would get much traction in the Greens caucus room…

David
I will take your word for it (against all other evidence) that Comrade Bradford is not as barking mad as Delahunty, however, that does not mean that Bradford is not as dangerous or downright evil.
Both are parasites who have spent a life sucking on the public tit, the sooner we get rid of Delahunty (this November) the better, she can join her pal Bradford on the dole.

What a disgusting rant from that Marxist Jim Flynn prick.
Vote:“I have no love for Gaddafi but …”
Yeah, sure you do mate, I bet he was your fucking idol up until about a month ago.
Charles Chauvel went up a couple of notches in my opinion, especially his comment to the suggestion that the MPs read Robert Fisks book about the Middle East.
