the teddy bear was poor little Malco first captive audience...

"Dear Bruce, what might have been is not what was, and that is the hardest lesson one has to learn in life. Poor little Malco. Do you remember once when he was having static asthma and I gave him the white rabbit with floppy ears? He couldn’t breathe but he still smiled and put out his hands for it’.

With these words in a letter to his dad, Malcolm's mum, Coral, left them. Sad. But little Malco may have learnt the skill of writing fiction from from his mum, nonetheless. She was a formidable writer of scripts for TV shows, movies and Documentaries, while ending as an Academic professor in the US, before she died.
Malcolm is still putting his hands out for white rabbits...

emotional baloney...

Are we to feel sorry for Malcolm Turnbull – a man with a net worth of $200 million who went to Sydney Grammar – or recognise the political desperation? Either way, he's not PM material, writes David Tyler.

SIGNS of desperation are appearing as the Coalition passes the halfway mark in its double or nothing two month campaign gamble, which so far is failing to pay off.

Labor is level-pegging in the polls while Shorten is ever more popular however much they rubbish him. And no one is buying its great big national economic plan of tax cuts that will fix everything.

Saddled with a superannuation policy it can't explain and an unfunded $50 billion business handout it can’t sell, an economic plan which simply will not work, its popularity tumbling, the Coalition is resorting to cheap tricks and stunts.

Treasurer, Scott Morrison, has trumped his recent falling into his own black hole trick with an even more embarrassing performance exposing “Shorten’s war on business” and his use of “tax as bullets” — a puerile pantomime replete with daft charts, on a day reserved for the repatriation of remains of soldiers who had died in Vietnam.

Not to be outdone, Nationals Deputy, Fiona Nash, whose last campaign was photographed with “Ditch the Witch” anti-Gillard posters, has attacked a “prehistoric” Bill Shorten for claiming that women do most of the work when it comes to organising childcare. 

Yet all this appears reasonable compared to the PM’s crying poor. Millionaire Malcolm Turnbull, whose father was a hotel broker, the boy who was a scholarship student at elite Sydney Grammar, is now posing as a battler from a broken home — a pitch the mainstream media suggest, is a bid for the women’s vote, although they may be confusing his emotive plea with his recent claim to be a feminist.

FFS. Malcolm's maudlin campaign ad about his father is crying out for parody and satire. The Chaser ? Micallef ? Anyone...?

Or are we being asked to accept that his wretched childhood will cause women to rush to mother him? Never mind that he’s a weak and indecisive political Walter Mitty whose pipe dreams of innovation and agility are no substitute for policy or leadership, we must all take pity on poor little Malco for his dreadful suffering. Whatever the aim, it’s emotional baloney.

skilful bullshit from malco...

I don't know if you have noticed, unless you turned off the TV station as soon as you saw Malcolm delivering a crappy advert for his return to government, but poor Malco talks about "EXPORT deals" his (Abbott's) government has made, skilfully avoiding the word "TRADE" (these are trade deals) so you see only the "rosy" picture of cash ringing in because you sell a bit more offal to the Japanese... So you don't get the feeling of being screwed in the "trade off", like loosing some (if not all) of your democratic rights to multinationals.

 

This is what these "trade deals" are about — surrendering democracy to the rights of corporation to do as they please in your back yard, front yard, including your health system. But of course, poor Malco sees only the cash — not the cost, that includes an aggrandisement of the trade deficit, in favour of the said multinationals — and the USA, of course.
