Stupid question?

He was like a slow motion car crash.

I was going to post this in reply to moxi about his love of Dirty Harry films on another recent thread as in my opinion it’s the best quote of all the films and comes at the end of Magmum Force. But it now seems more appropriate here.

Understood BUT I would think always (in the case of parliamentary governments) and sometimes (like now) in a system like ours where one party controls all the houses of the legislature, it's kind of hard to separate legislation from the party making that legislation.

That's actually one of the arguments in favor of the parliamentary form of democracy, that some party or coalition of parties is responsible for any legislation.

Take the current "beautiful" budget bill trying to thrash its way through. At the moment, the Senate version not only removes tax incentives for building out renewable energy but wants to slap an excise tax on! Obviously a terrible idea. How can I even say that without being political? Just by not naming which party controls the Senate? That's enough?

You seem to be playing a silly game. I hope you're getting some enjoyment from it. However you should know it is utterly transparent.

Mike was a bit of a fud on his previous forum (GLF). Condescending smartarsey was his raison d'etre there (well I am in France). That wasn't reason to bin him though. We're all different and that difference keeps it from stagnation.

The decision comes from his ego and inability to listen when asked a few times to leave politics alone.

Not really a big deal eh? Come into this place, dont mention politics and you're welcome to a seat at the table.

Not for Mike though, not good enough, can't help himself. MUST let others know. As I said, fud. Bye.

Sad that some can’t follow rules..
