Reasons you will hate me

Hmmm. Mandy has done many a terrible thing but I've often thought it scandalous that the Liberal party used her to get what they wanted done - because it's easy for society to hate a large, offensive and brash woman.

She's literally the equivalent of getting a fat greasy plumber to come and unblock your shit encrusted drainpipes.

I don't know - I feel uncomfortable with the intense vitriol towards her because it just transpires in fat jokes and fashion jokes rather than jokes about her policies.

Kia Ora cuz.

have those lips been photoshopped, or does she really look like that?

Is that what they mean when they say someone has 'a great face for radio'?

From SAL

if she ends up on dancing with the stars next year i'm moving to bora bora and opening a bait shop.

Poor old Honeycheeks.

Can I just wish her a hearty FUCK YOU for all she has done in her various portfolios over the years, and can she please eat Phillip Ruddock on her way out, and use Richard Alston or Tony Abbott as a toothpick.

Oh, sorry, that's rude, making fun of the horrible woman for her weight. There's really so much more worthy things to dislike her for. Her personality, for a start.

Just what we need, another one to man the fans' tones.

Immigration is the department where souls are crushed and political careers go to die.

Next victim...

Kevin Andrews

Talk about getting shafted

Quoting someone who quoted The Age from yesterday "The trouble-plagued immigration minister was sacked from cabinet and is now tipped for an overseas diplomatic posting".

Wonder if she would have to spend some time in detention while awaiting her posting? Mandatory fat joke: she could do with a good hunger strike.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure she knew what she was getting into when she signed on as Boss Hog. My sympathies with ol' Mandy are kind of hovering around zero level today, though that just could be because I'm overtired at present.


I might add, by the way, that I try to make it a policy never to crack about her weight. There's plenty else wrong with her if you're looking for comic setpieces.

Sorry... jokes about her are the easy way out. For every poor, disadvantaged person she fucked over, I wish her a slow, painful, cancerous death. I'm afraid there are some people in the world we'd be better off without, and she's one of them!

I couldn't believe this when I first saw it:

audrey, the reason she gets fat jokes is because she has only become fat AFTER she boarded the Howard government gravy train.

Ms Fits,

I'm with you on the physical appearance stuff.

And s it just me or has there been far too much use of the phrase "the biggest loser" - I'm amazed the newsreaders don't wink at the camera when they say it.

I can't wait for some more carefully chosen legalisms to explain away immorality and barbarism writ large.

Mandy always struggled with that (she had a bit too much heart poor thing- a little 'bit' maybe),

Kevin Andrews on the other hand will be perfect.

A return to the breathless cynicism of the ice cold cadaver himself, Phillip Ruddock.

Though about as fond of Mandy as I am of, say, syphilis, she really was just an incompetent wet-Liberal who inherited most of Ruddock's fuck-ups.

Kevin Andrews is a neo-con fundamentalist nutjob. Expect things to get worse in immigration, not better.

The only amusing thing about all this is the new acronym for Immigration: Department of Immigration & Citizenship. The DIC.

I think the reasoning for Andrews is Tampa II. Force Rudd to come out and make a stand on border protection, an area which the Libs own, and away from touchy-feely Health and Education where Labor kick arse.

I have no problem with people who are weight or fashion challenged. Hell, I’ve been called fat more times then I care to remember so I am not about to consider casting that stone.

What I do have a problem with is the insensitivity she showed her portfolio.

Amanda Vanstone is a heartless witch who bore the legacy of Ruddock’s hatefulness like a badge of fucking honour.

I have no kindness in this case and pray that her next post is in Baghdad or Tikrit where she can really, truly reap the fruits of her parties efforts.

There is still something painfully incongruous about someone who has clearly more than enough to eat every day dictating to people who are on hunger strikes. But yes, I generally try to avoid commenting on appearance. I just want someone to snap Tony Abbott like a twig, and I want Phil to disappear. I thought she could help out.

i can't believe all you people are missing the point here.

fine and subtle DOES NOT EQUAL caramel custard.

and is she meaning creme caramel? or one of those fuck awful "desserts" you can find at safeway? does she mean brulee? surely not.

oh, many vandy, goodbye tootsie.

ms fits

not sure if this is where you leave the friday q, but i have had a few wines so feel like i fit right in?
thus my second question - do you think tom petrovski sits on a swisse ball and hence the writhing and high
eyebrows?
also whilst i am here, i am a VERY old aquaintence who has once been in your abode, so is it ok to say "remember us?" when in the supermarket?
(apologies for spelling and other blog-type wrong-doings)

I never thought I'd come out in defence of The Vanst, but I was once told by a Lawyery type of Hardcore Refugee Activist who had quite a lot to do with Vanstone's office that Amanda was actually much more humane than P.Ruddy, and although not perfect, she could be convinced to grant visas to people who really needed them. It doesn't sound like she had the same kind of maniacal border protection madness that others in her party were infected with.

Still, she IS part of J.Ho's party, so it's not like she doesn't deserve to writhe around in a pit full of damp centipedes/ big bald rabbits/Idol Judges from Around the World and so on until about the end of time.

Also, WHAT'S FUNNIER THAN FAT LADIES GOING DOWN!!! HAHAHA EWWW NOT IN THAT WAY EWWW!!!! HA HA HA!! etc.

Re Mandy Slobstone,

Conversation o/heard in a pub ...

Opinionated Drunk One: Y'shouldn't be knocking Mandy bout her weight, y'should be attacking her callous inhumane policies.

Opinionated Drunk Two: Hey, I don't like her policies either - but butt-ugly is butt-ugly, can't be ignored, needs be commented upon! Not my fault she's a hideous mound of flaccid feculent flesh! Too much shoving shit in her cake'ole - greedy white bitch!

[obviously this was a Sydney, not a Melbourne, pub]

Nora, while I would like to believe that Vanstone has some sensitivity as you say, I give you two words to discredit your theory= Vivian. Alvarez.

Johnny Coward dumped her because she didn't swallow.

I'd like to remember the woman for her A-class interviews, myself:

I asked him, John Howard, if I was able to get on a plane with an HB pencil, which you're able to, and I further asked him if I went down and came and grabbed him by the front of the head and stabbed the HB pencil into your eyeball and wiggled it around down to your brain area, do you think you'd be focussing?

I mean, seriously. What the fuck.

I am disappointed that nobody has picked up The Age's startling revelation that Mandy is in fact a dreadful stoner. This explains everything from the munchies to the bizarre statements.

It's all in the Age headline - for dumped Vanstone, mull's the future!

mmmmmm~
the smell of rotting cunts
dance Mareeka
Dance for me baby
you do it SO good

you KNOW I dont like to fuck around
ok?

Mandy is known for being an old-fashioned conservative - ie, evil, not stupid. Her response to the Alverez thing, as we should recall, was actually shat on from on high. She probably all told was a moderate person for the job.

And as for my questions last week, if tearing strips from the Tim Blair brigade gets me a look-in romatically, I'll promise to make vegemite and avacado crumpet toast in the morning.
