Breaking News: PM sends Vaile, AWB Chairman to Iraq to save wheat contracts

So he's sending the head of the company that illegally funded Sadam and is currently under investigation for same, along with the bloke who completely failed in his UN chartered responsibility to ensure kick backs did not occur. Anyone else see a problem here?

In keeping with this brilliant idea he is sending Pol Pot and Idi Armin to represent Australia at a human rights conference, Alan Bond to represent us at a Corporate Governance symposium and Harold Holt to a Swim Safe think tank.

To paraphrase NSW Premier Morris Iemma 'what a f***wit'.

A thinly Vailed (or Valed) threat

Mark Vail and his crop of cronies claims he had no idea that AWB was giving kick backs to Saddam. In 2003 the US presented a report that stated exactly that. In 2004 the Australian Ambassador to the US personally lobbied to have an investigation the kick backs stopped. Despite the fact he knew nothing about it? Add to that reports that a blind mans dog grabbed Mark gently by the shirt cuff and led him towards AWB. In a separate incident Skippy was at the end of his desk clicking away like mad whilst pointing to a photo of AWB headquarters and freekin Flipper turned up in the Parliamentary lap pool do his thing with a blade of wheat in his gob. Vail, just like Howard and children overboard, is either a liar or an idiot; either way Australians deserve better. As has been the case for the this decade of Howard government truth in government simply does not exist; it is all about plausible deniability. “I’m damned sure something funny is going on here but if I don’t ask and won’t listen I can claim I did not know.”

Danna Vale fits into a similar category but she definitely has a little from column A, a little from column B with an enormous amount of ignorance to boot. I am not going to spend a lot of time discrediting her moronic statement as everyone from the Opposition to her own Minister for Immigration has done so and I have made my thoughts clear in an email to her.

These incidents come just after the defection Senator McGowan from the Nationals to the Liberals. This coalition is like a really bad marriage with lots of money involved where neither party wants recognise the dysfunction for fear of losing what they think is important; money. In this instance it is not money but power (if they can be separated) that is keeping this highly dysfunctional relationship together. In this instance we the Australian people are the children of this marriage; those that get hurt while “the adults” play there pathetic power games.

It is said that a society gets the government it deserves. What freekin atrocity, acts of horror and / or diabolical deeds have we as individuals committed to deserve this incompetent, narrow minded, every-freekin-thing-phobic, self serving coalition.

The only thing that is holding this government together is their insatiable lust for power and this is happening at the expense of regular Australians like you and me.
