Liberal or Labor? (12 Viewers)

Saddens me how this is increasingly turning into American-style politics. You don't vote for a leader, you vote for a party. Le sigh

abbot seems unequipped to run a country. too conservative & old fashioned to be able to function in global politics imo.

Oh you're all about the freedom, just less about freedoms to have an abortion, freedom to seek asylum, freedom to own a firearm. Basically you care about freedoms when they are ones you wish to exercise, ergo liberals are basically greedy people in thin veils.

when have i EVER expressed "pro-life" opinions?

freedom to seek asylum,

I believe in open boarders (actually I believe in no borders but that's a different story), but only once we end our welfare statism

freedom to own a firearm.

Even though I'll probably end up voting shooter's party?

Is this one of those quasi-trolling posts?

If not, you really have no idea about my views.

Seriously, what's wrong with that? A leader might last 10 years, a party creed which leaders tend to abide by may last for hundreds of years. The core values are more important than one person.

if you honestly think lentern's post was of any value then you clearly have no fucking clue about my political views

I know your not an "abbott liberal" per se but you just heckled someone for criticizing him as too conservative, presumably because the one freedom he believes in is that of the rich to get richer.

My point was she was calling abott too socially conservative, while acting as though rudd is socially liberal.

 

[SylviaB]

And I'm not a "liberal" at all, let alone an "abott liberal"

There was no mention of Rudd and at any rate in Rudd you have a general progressive who has little conviction and lives in fear of the Howard legacy. In Abbott you have a once priest in training, or is your stance on Christianity just as fickle.

I didn't mean in the party political sense.

I think labour is better than liberal because [the leader of the liberals is too socially conservative].

 

[Lentern]

Well in the first case thats true but in a more relevant one the thing you quoted only said that Abbott was unequipped to run the country because he was too conservative.

 

[SylviaB]

that poster is an idiot

end of story

I'm fairly certain the only freedom abbott believes in is the freedom of the church to get richer, imho.

Not too big on the whole 'economics' front.
