Tony Abbott seems set to get his fifteen minutes of fame - courtesy of
Bolt and a tragedy that Abbott seems willing to milk for all its political
worth.
In
his blog today, Bolt writes: “Tony Abbott is leading the West into a
confrontation with nuclear superpower Russia over the downing of MH17. The
stakes are incredibly high, as the Prime Minister organises, effectively, a
small army to move into Ukraine.”
What utter tosh!
The ‘small army’ turns out to be a small group of Australian Federal
Police officers who will be unarmed and, rather than actually confronting ‘nuclear
superpower Russia’, they’ve
postponed going into Ukraine because it’s too dangerous due to the fighting
between the Ukrainian forces and Russian separatists.
The way Bolt tells it you’d think Abbott was the saviour of the world
instead of a bumbling lunatic who has staggered onto the misfortune of others
and realised that he can make political hay from it while he has the
opportunity to strut the world stage and allow his right-wing backers in the
commentariat to promote him to status of ‘world leader’.
Thank u D. Succint & perceptive
ReplyDeleteBolt's recent article about Abbott being some super hero standing tall with his budgie smugglers on the outside of his tights was a text book case of hyperbole written by his favoured sycophant, toady, creep, crawler, fawner, flatterer, flunkey, truckler, groveller, doormat, lickspittle, kowtower, obsequious person, minion, hanger-on, leech, puppet, spaniel, Uriah Heep; bootlicker, yes-man; arse-licker, arse-kisser, brown-nose;suckhole .
ReplyDeleteAbbott was doing little more than the job he was paid to do as the only delegate on the Security Council with citizens on board MH17. The Dutch have taken over the 'small army' that our Tony cobbled together. Andrew was he demoted?
"Abbott, as a Catholic and student of past battles with totalitarianism, understands evil." Bolt must have out of his mind come close to wetting himself in constructing that sentence. Straight from the tent preacher's bible.
It was I guess because Abbott was forced to back down from his original rush of blood blaming Putin personally for what had happened. However Andrew knows better "It's true Abbott has stopped talking" he says,then talks for him "The problem is that Obama is weak and Europe even weaker, dependent on Russia for a third of its oil and gas as well as billions in contracts, like ones France signed to supply amphibious assault ships. The world has no moral clarity." It's Why plain speaking Tony Abbott is "electric" and will come back after we have brought our people home. Is this why he is staying there waiting for another window of opportunity? If Russia retaliates to sanctions by cutting oil and gas to the EU. Tony could send coal.
Come home Abbott and stop milking this tragedy. The work has been delegated the Dutch are leading the EU team.
As for Andrew Bolt Mike Carlton couldn't have said it better " Bolt is a fart in a crowded train carriage - unpleasant, but of no consequence” This masterpiece article shows him to be the arse- licker that he is.
