Weakening of a Nation 5 - Peter Garrett Gagged

[abelashes]

Peter Garrett should have never joined ALP.

Peter Garrett should not be the target. Target the energy minister. the employment minister. the prime minister they are the ones turning their back on responsible alternatives Peter Garrett is fighting for

[mikefmale]

Peter Garret's wild gesticulating as the frontman of Midnight Oil was clearly a neoconservative environmental vandal trying to break free. I notice he's not dancing anymore.

fuck off with your rant

Watch parliament question-time. Peter Garrett was very effective in question-time.

[AquarianRising]

but did you see the day he WAS silenced?

There are too many things that are "classified" to say any of them are really effective.

[RAWSET]

Jee what a surprize. For using him for symbolic reasons. Peter Garrets biggest fault was having the balls to take such a position and think this wouldnt happen. Maybe he did know but will give his best shot anyway. Regardless of losing face to those he inspired and how UNPOPULAR he might become to both environmentally concerned people and other. Regardless that he's at risk of being used as the Scapegoat as well.

I wish him better luck and hope they dont throw him to the lynch mobs.

Kevin is out of the country again - after all they voted for a diplomat - this is what he can do. All talk and no action. Meanwhile we have to suffer Julia as PM. I hope we don't have to make any major decisions or actually have to start doing any sort of governing around the place. Ah land of the long weekend ... yawn

[onemoreterm]

It is laughable how they back stabbed Garrett with giving his portfolio to Penny Wong. Grab a look at the flotilla of drop kicks who went to Bali. Abandon ship - where's the sunscreen? Talk about a conga line ......

[CohanDigitmatta]

who wouldn't gag peter garret though?

honestly, rofl

garret is obviously biased and is incapable of representing opinions on the environment other than his own.

btw, what was the go with your "labor voter language"?

rofl

[ejnewkes]

Garrett, biased? Of course he is, as is everyone, myself included. At least his opinions seem to be well-informed, and not based on some corporate mate's bottom line.

On the other hand, he just doesn't seem to be able to think on his feet. He probably paces around at night saying "Bugger... I should have said..."

[narcotect]

Damn.. I didnt know that. Some shifty shit

[tt3142]

You said it. They used Peter Garrett for what they could get from him now they have tossed him aside and gagged him. Unbelievable.

While I totally agree with you Bj, what you failed to mention is Jesus christ that boy can dance :)
