Come here, little doggy, come and see Abbott’s Army …
Jump to Comments
From Opposition Leader Tony Abbott:
“Obviously, if you are going to win the election you have got to secure the people who regard themselves as rusted on Coalition voters and then you have got to reach out to the middle ground,” Mr Abbott told Fairfax Radio today.
“And ‘Howard’s Battlers’, to use that phrase, were basically working people who respected John Howard because he thought that, in his own way, he was one of them.
“We can reach out and claim those same people … maybe this could become Abbott’s Army.”
I think I know what Abbott’s Army looks like already:

We have the mad monk to thank for one thing – he’s got you crazybrave-blogging again
Abbott is almost making Barnaby look sane. Now that’s a worry.

So funny but yet so true.

Surely you need to add some pictures of book burnings too.

And some from WYD…
He make Turnbull look like a good guy too. Husband draws similarities with the Johns Hewson/Howard power struggle. In retrospect Hewson might’ve been a less bigoted arsehole for a PM.

Hewson was much nicer… it’s a shame his columns during the Howard regency were all hidden away in the AFR, but he’s got a conscience at some level.
Yah, it’s worth remembering what a sympathetic hearing those dirty creatures got before we crow too much about how far Abbott is from the mainstream.

Yay for you blogging again!
I’d quibble that that’s Andrews’ Army. Abbott’s is the one with mitres and dresses and rosaries.

Gawd those photos are horrifying when all in one place.
And good to have you blogging here again.
