The difference chaps is that Footy has a crack where he sees fit and for a reason. I don't have any problem with people crticising poltical decisions, after all we live in a democracy.
John, you simply make unfounded statements based on bias. You said a couple of weeks ago that Garret was the worst Environment Minister in the history of Australia. That was a plainly silly thing to say as he hasn't been in the job long enough to be judged.
Now Garret has made a very good decision, that you can't dispute, but neither can you say it. Your bias won't let you.
For the record, I don't think Garret is up to the job. He was put in the role, IMO, for popular vote. Time will tell.
And I reckon Swann will come unstuck. Seems like a decent enough bloke but he hasn't got the sharp mind of a Costello, Keating, Dawkins or Howard. The Treasurer has to be the best performer the Govt has got.
Jim.
