Can we now resume normal programming??? >:(

Thank the beer gods that its over.
As a sacrifice ALL myswaggers (expect that sancitmonious native artist peddler that doesn't drink - (BS)) MUST drink for the gods.
Obviously all rules and regulations must be complied with. Said drinks need to be consumed around the ring of fire in order to appease the carbon tax gods.
All led lights must be turned on to light the path and all camper trailers must be baptised in the ever sacred native red dirt.
Any resistance must be punished with lashings by 6B&S cable and anyone who defies the ceremonious sacrifice must be condemned to an eternity trying to understand solar.

Long live the camper trailer....

The thing about Australian politics is that parties don't get voted in - governments get voted out.  I'm pretty worried about the senate though, it looks like some of the crazies in the greens are being replaced by some even bigger crazies in the minority parties.

Anyway, I'll just leave this here ;D

Doesn't really matter if he gets a reps seat, he might get the balance of power in the senate.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who finds that terrifying.

He didn't blubber, but true to form - he didn't shut up.  He took 23 minutes to deliver a concession speech that did not once mention the person who who was 10 times the PM that he was (Julia Gillard) which I found was disgraceful.  It also sounded like a victory speech even though the people were pretty clear his government were not wanted.  Finally it is not all about Kevin, I'm looking forward to that.

In contrast Abbott kept it short - 10 minutes - kept it humble, and did not big note himself or his party.  Very statesmanlike.

I am some what amazed even appalled at the ferocious comments some people are making about Tony Abbott, not so much about the Liberal Party.  Not that I noticed but I guess similar comments were made about Rudd and Gillard.  I can understand comments about the performance of Rudd and Gillard while they were PM.  While the Labor Party did have some brilliant ideas it has to be said the Party's execution or mismanagement of those idea, the party and Rudd/Gillard deserved some of the comments.  But Abbott and the Coalition have only just been voted, lest give them a chance before demanding their heads like some comments have made.  And as for the colourful descriptions of the people that voted the Coalition into government that made Abbott PM, have a look at yourself, cause what you are saying is just un Australia.  My only suggestion to you is if the place is going to be that bad, leave.

Don't get me wrong I don't mind taking the urine out of anyone, but really some of the comments being made only run on the fears  that something may happen or peoples paranoid delusional thoughts and coming out with some very threatening and disturbing comments.

That is always the way with political parties when they know they are in dire straits: threaten the public with "what ifs" of the opposition policies rather than promoting their own. Remember the ludicrous scaremongering from Labor when Hewson first touted the idea of a GST? Yet the infamous treasurer/PM of the 80's & early 90's actually proposed a GST back in the mid 80's himself.

We voted at 8am and by 9am we were making our way towards Inskip Point, or more to the point, Pelican Bay right next to Inskip.

Parked it in a 20 foot deep hole, didn't listen to any radio or TV and had a rip roaring time over the week-end, as we were the only boat in there.  ;D

Back in the marina on Sunday arvo and i'm tellin ya, its the best thing i've ever done on an election week-end.

And you have zero evidence to actually prove that statement apart from xenophobia.

How about we see how they go first, before sinking the boot in.

As has already been mentioned, the people have spoken, and have voted out Labor.  If that happens to make you unhappy, then venting in here isn't going to help you is it?

He defends his weekend four-wheel drive bush-bashing as being good for the environment.

"There is a misconception amongst the community that we modify our four wheel drives to tear up the bush, this is not the truth," he wrote.

"We put in lift kits, larger tyres, diff locks, winches etc. all as traction aids so we can drive challenging sections of track being able to maintain traction.

"Modifications also allow us to access remote parts of our country and return home safely no matter what Mother Nature may throw at us, therefor minimising our impact on the environment."

Yes, you can hardly expect to start a discussion thread on such a topic and have it confined to the content of that OP. I'm afraid that just as someone else advised CRW, if you don't like the direction the discussion is headed in then just tune out. There does seem to be a tendency for some members to think they have some kind of "ownership rights" to a thread and its content because they started it, but correct me if I am wrong but I thought this was a domain of free speech & thought, and all are welcome to add as they see fit.
