A. How can it be a joke if it makes you cry?

B. NSW is not run by a Yank. It's run by He Who Must Be Obeyed.

All I want for christmas is an early election...

Cheers,

Not quite.
NSW is still being run by the same people the Yank is just the current puppet Premier.

You don't mean the loony right of the left do you.

Come on guys, give HER a break. Her mother and grandmother were both born and raised in Australia. She is intelligent and is also from Ohio. She graduated from the University of Dayton, in Dayton, Ohio.

By the way, I may be biased since my wife and I, as well as both of our daughters and son-in-laws also graduated from UD.

There was a real nice article in today's Dayton paper about her.

May she do well!!

So will it be the left or the right that yank the strings

She is also related to Thomas Keneally this makes sense now.

I have nothing against her personally, except for some alarmingly poor performances when pressed about issues in her portfolio, most notibly a desire NOT to know what her senior management are doing in order to absolve herself of responsibilty.

In general though it is the concern that she, like rees before her, is simply being installed as premier by the likes of Eddie Obeid and Joe Tripodi to smile for the cameras and when they show any sign of wanting to actually govern, they get booted, like Rees...

Same old same old , no one was going to vote for carr , so the party sack him pryor to an election , he resignes we get stung with the by-ellection , the donkeys vote yemma in , he gets to the stage where no one will vote for him so the party sack him and costa ( just as they become eligable for their huge pensions , within days in fact) they resign and we and we get stung with the cost of by-ellections rees in as a stop gap and as the election comes up sack him and install a woman , gives then a new look and the donkeys will proberly re ellect them again and in the mean time health , transport, etc etc etc go further down the gurglerr
Voters have short memories and die hard attutides die hard but the thing that gets me is these pollies run for a job for a term 4 years or whatever , but as soon as they don't get all the marbles or their time is sufficent that they can bludge off their pension / super off they go and we have to pay for a by-ellection . IMO the cost of the by-election should come out of their super
Rant off

[RETIRED]

Probably more appropriate in here now.

Don't know much about her except a couple of ordinary performances as minister. Trouble is, if you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Until Sartor, Obeid, Tripodi and the rest of the 'king-makers' are rissoled any labor politician will be tainted.

[Groggy]

The problem is not with the politicians, it is with the voters.
