Gents (and gentesses), I've come to what some might think a rather contrarian conclusion in regards to the actions of Rob Oakeshott and Tony Windsor in backing the Gillard "government" (to use that last word lather loosely).
Rather than see them as total oxygen thieves who've clearly acted against the wishes of the vast majority of their voters in their electorates, I find myself wondering if history won't see them as Conservative heroes who committed personal political suicide in an high-minded endeavour to ensure that even the thickest and most rusted-on Labor supporters among the collective Australian electorate would have the blinkers forcibly removed from their eyes by making them endure a whole term of idiotic Labor government, ensuring that Labor will never set their sorry arses on the government benches again for a generation.
Of course, on the other hand, they both might just be total oxygen thieves...
