“What’s Tony Abbott up to?” was the headline that linked to an article from Malcolm Farr about Tony Abbott’s meeting with US President Barack Obama.
One wonders why Abbott would want to meet with Obama, but one wonders even more why Obama would want to meet with Abbott. Why would the most powerful man in the world want to meet with a knuckle-dragging universal embarrassment like Tony Abbott?
Farr’s answer had me choking on my sandwich:
… sources encouraged the perception that Mr Obama and other senior US figures were keen to consult Mr Abbott on international affairs …
I’ll say it again in case you missed it:
… sources encouraged the perception that Mr Obama and other senior US figures were keen to consult Mr Abbott on international affairs …
You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding.
What on earth has a policy barren, bungling Luddite like Abbott got to offer anybody, let alone Obama? Abbott opposes just about everything Obama stands for, notably wanting to tackle climate change and introduce universal health care – which Abbott wanted to destroy back home, and the extent of his knowledge on international affairs is restricted to wanting to bomb the crap out of the Middle East and telling Europe to close its borders to refugees.
I’d be surprised if Abbott had even heard of America before he became Prime Minister.
He has about as much to offer them as the skinny dead mouse I found behind my piano.
Malcolm’s article gets worse when he introduces Kevin Andrews into the story. He writes that:
It is as if Mr Andrews was so shaken by Mr Turnbull’s inability to recognise his brilliance he has sought the comfort of Washington, where his ministerial sparkle still dazzles.
Holy crap! Andrews couldn’t even sparkle if he was covered in fairy dust.
Bloody hell, Malcolm, did you make this stuff up?
You’re kidding, right?
