Sorry to say I'm a "small l" liberal like Peter Costello, not an arsehole like Eric Abetz.
Strong words Sunny, and I think I prefer Costello over Abetz too, but the comment doesn't sound like your usual "in depth" post.
To borrow your oft used phrase, to put that another way, does your statement only serve as a political comment from the left liberals about the far right or was there more to say and I've missed it?
One mantra you missed though,was "we have a mandate from the voters" and will quote this when justifying a shift from stated policy for example, an action not confined to the Libs ("no GST") with Labor("no carbon tax") as guilty.
