Another Day, Another Abbott Blunder.

September 24, 2012

Tony Abbott; can he get any more stupid…?

Federal Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has lashed out at Prime Minister Julia Gillard slamming her for what he called “swanning around” in New York “talking to Africans.”

Instead Mr Abbott believes that the Prime Minister’s priorities should be more focused addressing border protection issues.

“She (sic) should be in Jakarta talking to the Indonesian head of state about border security” said Mr Abbott.

However, unfortunately for Mr Abbott, Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono isn’t actually in Jakarta.

He’s in New York attending the United Nations summit. You know, the same one that Julia Gillard is attending.

Taking to the airwaves to besmirch the Prime Minister, Mr Abbott told 2GB listeners that the Government’s response to asylum seekers was a “continued failure” of Labor.

“The really important thing is that right now our Prime Minister is in New York spruiking for this Security Council bid,” he said.

“She (sic) should be in Jakarta, not in New York, because that is where Australia’s national interest is most at stake right now,” he added.

“She (sic) should be in Jakarta talking to President Yudhoyono about how we can co-operate better with the Indonesians to stop this flow which is putting our border protection hopelessly under the pump.”

“That’s why our Prime Minister shouldn’t be swanning around in New York talking to Africans, she should be in Jakarta right now trying to sort out border protection disaster.”

However, the Jakarta Post reports that President Yudhoyono, the first lady Ani Yudhoyono and other Indonesian delegates touched down at JFK Airport in New York on Sunday at 8.30am (10.30pm Sunday, Sydney time).

Both leaders are in New York for the annual four-day assembly of the UN.

    Fascinating. Joe Hockey fronting the media this morning talking about Australia’s “above trend growth” when last week Tony Abbott claimed the economy wasn’t growing…

    At least Joe just walks away from the media these days without taking questions, saving himself from any further humiliation I suppose…

    Jesus Christ. I thought the “talking to Africans’ bit was a jest.

    And then I just read the report.

    What a fucking knob.

    “Jesus Christ. I thought the “talking to Africans’ bit was a jest.”

    I know. And some people think this guy should be PM.

    Is this what Tony meant by “talking to Africans?”

    Jealousy’s a terrible thing.

    Maybe he feels “uncomfortable” around Africans. Or was that gays? Or gay Africans?

    The idea of this fool on the world stage … It’s enough to make a man throw up in his pants.

    Oops.

    “Tony Abbott is a jerk. He was a jerk this year, he was a jerk last year, he was a jerk ten years ago and thirty too. His offences go way beyond fashion crimes. Those heavy-handed legal and ecclesiastical defenc…es have put him in a position where he feels he can do no wrong, and so is blind to objective signals to change course to which others pay close heed.”

    And what’s with all the “religious speak” that Tony constantly trots out but never seems to get pulled up on…?

    The other night he said that Cory Bernardi will have to do “his political penance.”

    FFS… 🙄

    The other night he said that Cory Bernardi will have to do “his political penance.”

    sreb, that simply means they’ll shuffle him to another “portfolio” when the dust settles … a bit like shifting peadophilic priests from diocese to diocese … with no real disciplinary action, just keeping them on ice until they can be recycled … it’s a tried and true method of deceptively dealing with public recalcitrants …

    Phoney Tony appears to have a thing about women. Maybe he has a thing about Africans too. Female Africans — all run away!!
