Alan Joyce-Australian of the Year (A.Vanstone)

Strewth-what a way to spoil a good bowl of Fruit Loops this morning.

After reading this.........they ended up on the floor .....scaring the cat !

Please someone tell me she's dreaming.

Why Alan Joyce should be named Australian of the Year

Must be trying to get access to Chairmans Lounge or is being used by Rat spin doctors who are reaching new heights of dizziness today ramping up the rhetoric.

Pity they dont actually spend time running an airline,imagine the bottom line if all these spin costs were stripped out?

My God, why did they dredge this tired, irrelevant political anachronism up from the depths of history's toxic waste dump to comment on Qantas? Some of the words that come to my mind when I hear the name Amanda Vanstone are "nasty', "bitter', "truculant" and "fat".

Actually "fat' does not convey the reality that this woman is so big that her corpulant carcass is approaching what Steven Hawking would define as Critical Mass. One more cream bun through her jowls and the entire Australian East coast would be vapourised by the resultant mini black hole.

Amand Vantsone needs to take stock that she is one of the reasons that there is a Labour government in Australia. With the policies of her cabinet collegues her reddening features appearing on TV to frighten the children at regular intervals (ie 6pm news), many Australians felt that they had no option but to vote for the ALP.

Return her to the time machine and send her back to the 1980's!

The one-time Minister for immigration and part-time airline industry commentator debates an important national issue in the Senate. Who did take the last pappadum?

If being a liar and a thief is what it takes to be Australian of the year-I want out of this country

Well done Anthill

That would have to go down as one of THE funniest posts I have read all year.

Too bad - it has been relegated to Jet Blast. More people should read it.

Does wonders for a boring news day

Kinda reminds me of this bloke, er, I mean sheila.



No doubt Amanda is a player in Alan Joyce's 'Lawsuits R Us' management team.
Do as your told or she'll rip your bloody arms off.

There are moments in life when one knows that one made the
RIGHT decision NOT to emigrate to Australia.
