Its no more pointless than you believing the church can stick its nose in the private business of its citizens.

People attend a church by choice... if they don't agree with its policies they can find a different one...Quote:

In 36 years the church has never bothered me at work, how have they bothered you?Quote:

You aren't now... but if you work for the church then they have every right.Quote:

They are responding to the debacle in Britain by striking first, but there are other issues here, there is a concentration of media ownership with the Murdoch press having a very big stake. Murdoch started in Australia. The legislation they brought forward was ill advised and rushed they know they had to act or loose the opportunity forever, This is a bad government and the debacle of the last few days underlines it. We will see the Little Red Fox off in SeptemberQuote:

"The only way to give our country the good government that we so badly need right now at a difficult time in the life of our nation is to have an election," "We cannot wait till September 14. If the Prime Minister was concerned about the party, if she was concerned about the country, if she was less concerned about herself and her own survival, there would be an election now." Tony Abbott... right on!
Let me answer that in a number of waysQuote:

Krudd is his own worst enemy, an egomaniac who alienated his support base and then proved he didn't have the guts to loose a third time and so what we now have is a leaderless chook soon to have its head cut off,
I will be very happy when this experiement is over and we get back to stable Liberal government. We had this nonsense under Whitlam, we had it under Hawke and now we have it under Gillard. It is fed by media, probably Murdoch media. This demonstrates Labor is unfit to lead and they are being progressively thrown out in all states
Hang on Tom. I understand that you are one of the few people who actually take some interest in Australian politics. I also understand that there is nothing you can possibly learn from us.On that basis I will be controversial just for the fun of it.Quote:

Obama isn't that far from her in the positions he'd adopt if he could. Why don't I make an extreme reaction?. She isn't my business . I'm content with poking fun of her naivety.
Sorry my fault. The question I wanted to ask you was why don't Australian's react in an extreme way? I am just interested in your opinion given the fact that you are probably the only person who takes any interest in Australian politics.Quote:

In America, the very word socialism conjures up some very extreme image of fear and loathing held over I believe from the cold war. While our most successful social programs are indeed socialist in nature and intent.
Conservatives are intent on getting rid of or modifying them out of existence and privatizing the whole social safety net.
