All of those denigrating the "no" voters should be asking themselves why wasn't our proposition accepted ? With all the polling that had taken place "blind Freddy " could see it was doomed to failure.

Watched a little of 60 minutes overnight , it is but a shadow of its former self. It would seem that if they need a new item they recycle Donald Trump.There must be more newsworthy events happening .

Would be like given KRudd an Ambassadors position (tic).
It is supposed to be a neutral posting - is there a former serving Defence officer with indigneous background who can take on the job?

Given some of the people who have been in the position in the past, you could hardly call the position neutral (although I agree it's supposed to be). Mind you, I doubt Whitlam expected what his selection would do. :laughing5: :laughing5:

And if the job was opened to a defence officer of partial aboriginal descent, a person could be killed in the rush of gold/khaki/blue ring club members who have suddenly found dreamtime in their tree. :grin:

Hopefully Israel manage to exterminate every last one of them…and while they’re at it take out a pile of the scumbags protesting around the world… :brick-wall: :brick-wall: All tarred with the same brush… :violent1: :violent1: People who can send their kids out with suicide vests to kill innocent men, women and children aren’t human in my book… :angry4: :angry4: :angry4: The world would be a much better place without them… :supz: :supz:

As far as the tunnels go…forget filling them with water…the bastards might be able to swim…fill them with air fuel mix and have a Hamas BBQ… :yea: :yea: :supz: :supz: :fantastic:

God it’s hard being a humanitarian these days… :omg: :omg:
