I thought the Stump comments were quite complimentary

I was never a fan of Minchins because I have seen some of his hissy fits and it wasn't pretty, but he, and the rest of the SA senators, did so much for SA with respect to the defence contracts, which, unfortunately, Rann has taken all the credit for.

He tried his hardest to get us the nuclear waste dump too.

Yeah useless bastard we didn't get it

Terrible news about his Son but to be honest I'm not sorry to see him go ... still yearns the 50's like his mate Johnny Howard.

I just wish Cory Bernardi would do the same thing ...

And was part of the frontbench who sent us to invade Iraq.

YES!!!!! I loathe him. Glad he's gone.

And yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing the back of Cory Bernardi too (Young Libs poster child). But if he's going to stick around, he could at least have another bitch-fight with Christopher Pyne.

I always think "good to hear they're gone" when i hear something like this, but then i remember the massive super pension they receive every year for the rest of their life

(Young Libs/Hitler Youth poster child).

Have your say, fair enough, but the Hitler Youth reference is pretty ordinary.
