Yeah, she sees Captain Bligh hoodwink a few people with her crocodile tears so she tries it on too.

Utterly stupid woman.

And the press turns on Tony Abbott for saying "Sh*t happens" to a soldier. But that how the soldiers would have talked about it themselves.

Joolia's an idiot, so are the press.

Much prefer her - rather someone who for years has got universally good first hand reports from people who have worked with her from both sides of the political spectrum including the press as an intelligent, hard working, sensible, pragmatic politician than abbott with his empty slogans and decisions based on religion.

Hmm, not people from Canberra then (and certainly not the chap I was talking to yesterday)

Crocodile tears...

Don't remember her crying for the soldiers that have lost their lives in Afghanistan.

At least she doesn't make crass insensitive remarks like the idiot in charge of the opposition does.

Both amateurs......talk about a banana republic

No, she just makes condescending and patronising remarks.

She may be a hard worker but in the role she is in now she is out of her depth. She is no leader.

She ain't great, but Abbott would be far worse. That latest stunned silence by him after being shown his "sh*t happens" indiscretion proves that guy isn't fit to be PM!

Abbott's a moron, no question, but that stunned silence was more trying to control his rage I think. This whole "shit happens" thing has been taken completely out of context and Mark Riley and all involved at Channel 7 deserve to lose their jobs over this, not Tony Abbott.
