He overwhelmed that B grade actor and "social commentator" Rhys Muldoon with facts and common sense. Then on Nightline - another Labor-leaning program - Turnbull made Albo look really silly.


Pyne was embarrassing last night. He was like a shrill harpy. I saw a mate this morning who is a Liberal voter (yes! I have them ;) ) and I said "Chris did well last night." He just shook his head and groaned. :lol:

"The Labor Party is like North Korea"...I mean seriously?? He needs to stop sharing brains with Sophie Mirabella.

Turnbill did do well. He is an accomplished media performer who doesn't resort to histrionics, and stays on the subject, but even he can't sell that steaming pile that is the LNP broadband plan.

I rest my case. Pyne is a gun and he got up your nose and plenty of other people too I guess. I'm happy to accept he is seen as a poodle and other names, just so long as he does his job. And that is to make your team look stupid and my team to look good. Look at it like a player from an opposition club that you love to hate. But you respect his work ethic and skill set.


My team??

If we are going to start to use football analogies, then the Poodle is akin to Butcher at Port or Tambling at the Crows ...

Gun ... LOL :lol:

He's no gun obviously but SP thinks because he stirs up Labor supporters (and that he does) that's a positive for him.

Pollies (on both sides) tend to dismiss him for the 'mincing poodle' he is.

Bit hard to call q & a a lefty program seeing as it goes out of its way to make sure there are representatives from all political persuasions. Audience might be slightly left but wouldnt have thought thats the programs fault.

Yeah, we all see it differently don't we? Anyway I'm a Pyne fan. He is a gun and that is why he disturbs Labor people.Albanese couldn't lay a glove on him in the House


Can I get some of the shit you are smoking!!!

Are you taking the p---s :shock:

On the subject of footy/politics, I've heard that Pyne is a Port Adelaide (Power) supporter :oops:

I saw that doorstop on Sky. He levelled both barrels at KRudd and Labor and blew them out of the water - good work for a "mincing poodle".

So the liberal staffer who was taking the Labor posters down in Pynes electorate was actually "fixing" them because Labor staffers put them up poorly? Are we supposed to believe that?
