Kevid Rudd gone

Well the faceless men of the Media and the newspapers have got rid of Kevin Rudd and now Julia Gillard is going to have a faction election on Monday.
It appears to me that News Limited.SkyNews,the Murdock press and also all the 'shockjocks' have brought down the Labor Government all because Tony Abbott spat the dummy and told the people of Australia that he should be the PM.
Could you imagine Australia unde the ruling Liberals again...NO THANK YOU.
We had 14 yeasr of Howard and his bunch of no good dic*heads of which Tony Abbott was the Health Minister and what did he do,STUFF up the Health Sydtem in Australia,so many thngs that he did that they are to many to mention,and now Gen X & Y all want to see this bloke'Screw the country again'
NO ThHANKS.
Its time that the Media realised that there is more than politics in this country BUT once they get onto the bandwago,well nothing will stop them.
Time to wake up people and tell the Murdocks,News Limited,Packers and also the Media in general to go suck on a sav and stop having to much time on their hands......

She is the one who knifed a sitting PM, and it's her sycophants, promoted to high positions as a reward for their disloyalty to Kevin Rudd, who have been throwing dungbombs at a member of their own party for months now.

It started with Gillard's petty and spiteful omission of Rudd from the list of past Labor PMs during the Labor Party conference in December, and the culmination was the posting of the video last weekend - pure bitchiness, and not worthy of a party leader, let alone a prime minister. I lost what respect I had for her after that; she is not worthy to be leader any longer.

Their big problem is that Rudd was supposed to slink away quietly after they plunged the knife into his back, but he's stayed around, driving them crazy. They feel guilty every time they see him, and his electoral popularity drives them nuts.

I think the people will still keep right on supporting him as leader, until the moment Gillard leads the party to total annihilation at the next election.

I reside in rural NSW,I am stuck in a Nationals seat and unfortunately our local Federal Member is absolutely RUBBISH (I cant use the word that I want to),so we are all hoping for a clear cut internal spill.
We DONT want Abbott to ruin this great country of ours,so I dont believe that whoever is the PM that there will be much difference at the next electrion.
People forget that Howard stated that we would NEVER,never have a GST and we got one,he also stated that interest rates would remain low uunder his watch,also food and fuel prices would remain low under his watch,well the only thing that remained low under his watch was unemployment.
The Pacific Highway is still a mess,there was NO infrastucture under the Howard Governemt,the Health and Work Choices became a complete farce,alnd also the Howard Government gave into the 'faceless men' who even today are the Murdocks and the Packers.
Tony Abbott was the Minister for Work choices and also the Miniaster for healt in the Howard Goverment,and there was nothing BUT condemnation back then,even when he introdyuced the GST,which we shoulnt have got.
So Julia Gillard has introduced some unlikable taxes,BUT hell they dont come into being for another 12 months,as what is Abbott on about.
I would like to see Turnbull challenge Abbott and then I would say 'game on',the way it is at present well Abbott is just TOO negatibve and everything that comes out of his mouth is BULL.

Thanks my opinion,for waht its worth
