ABC still campaigning for ALP
Abbott, Bishop and Hockey have been doing their best to repair the damage done by the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd government. Talks with Indonesia failed to start a war as prophesised by Rudd and instead has started the ball rolling in stopping the boats. Media photographers stalked the recent ASEAN talks and managed to snap a shot of Putin and Abbott looking away from each other and somehow turned this into a Russian/Australian spat.
Boats have slowed, the live cattle trade is coming back on line, business is looking forward to some stability and the Rudd media frenzy has disappeared.
Yet you wouldn’t know about it – in fact anything the Coalition do is currently swamped by the ALP/ABC and Fairfax media going on and on about MP travel entitlements. That’s the only game in town as the Coalition slowly brings the country back into relevance.
Slipper still has to acknowledge what he’s done. On the ABC he claims the only reason he was charged was the publicitycreated by the Coalition. He ignores the fact that the publicity came about because he deliberately flaunted the rules and then tried to cover it up.
It is alleged that on three separate occasions in the first half of 2010 he filled in Cabcharge vouchers with fabricated details to hide the true nature of his travel to wineries and restaurants outside the capital, to claim parliamentary entitlements. If convicted, Mr Slipper faces a maximum jail sentence of five years.
Abbott is being questioned by the ABC as to his entitlement to travel expenses to appear at events like the Pollie Pedal where he is involved in raising money for charity. Other claims raised by the ABC include all incidences of travel to such events where he is clearly networking, raising money for charity or just campaigning. Slipper, on the other hand was out on a day on the piss and submitted multiple cab vouchers to hide the fact and then denied he had actually done anything wrong. Can’t see any similarities there. The ALP has been notedly absent from the political frey has they hold another election to select who gets the suicide pass but no matter, we have the ABC happy to continue in their role as the Australia’s anti-Coalition party.

Slipper has been rorting entitlements since he was endorsed by the Coalition and elected member for Fisher in 1993.
It only became an issue when his vote looked like it might count in the hung parliament.

If that were true, (and it isn’t), it would provide some balance given News Limited’s bias in favour of the Coalition.
Not just a serial liar, but determined to make an arse of yourself across the entire interwebs.
As Kev noted, you got a kicking at the Cat, so now you come here and roll out the same tired bullshit hoping to do better.
What was Einsteins definition of insanity again…
The LNP were well aware of Slipper and had planned on his removal but Gillard stepped in
Tinta at Catalaxy deals with that and quotes Joyce… we’d taken the wheelie bin out to the kerb, but what does Julia do, she goes and gets it but doesn’t leave it at the side of the House she drags it into the kitchen
More from Catalaxy rediculing you for your trying to sheet home Slipper to us conservatives. Gillard bought him and the ALP own him
It is true – the ABC are all over the ALP and Greens and anti Coalition. News Ltd just reports the facts. When the ALP do things that stuff up the economy or bring in legislation that just supports less than 20% of the population then if they report that you can hardly call it biased.
When the ALP destroyed the live cattle trade what would you have News Ltd report – that it was a good move? Reporting sheer incompetance is not bais it is reporting what’s going on in the country.

“When the ALP destroyed the live cattle trade”
So if i went out and robbed the bank, and the ABC reported it, you’d blame the ABC for any outcome.
Strange line of reasoning………..
No – you would as you blame News Ltd for bias. I don’t blame the ABC for anything other that abysmal anti- coalition bias.
There’s a hell of a difference in reporting something after the event as in your scenario of the bank robbery. If in fact the event occurs as a result of aiding, abetting, counseling or procuring its comission then it could rightfully be inferred that the party aiding abetting etc…..is party to the crime. You logic is in question 1735099.
Really?
Yep, anyone who has followed your postings on any site you visit certainly questions your logic, headmaster.
