Whenever a Labor MP comes across a group of people who are irate about the way labor is governing South Australia they always like to blame it on the Liberals as being some sort of Liberal political stunt. Whether it’s because of the St. Clair land swap deal or the selling of the Chelsea Cinema, both local council problems, for some reason according to Labor, the Liberals are involved.
Only last week the Attorney-General Michael Atkinson tried to introduce a law that was almost draconian in nature, something that you would expect from a communist state and not from a democratic country such as Australia. Atkinson tried to introduce censorship laws that would force people to use their real name, along with their post code, when they were commenting on the internet, via blogs etc., during an election. He defended this law saying that it would prevent people putting bogus claims on the internet under phony names. On Radio 5AA while talking to Leon Byner he claimed the new law was necessary to prevent people such as Aaron Fornarino. Apparently Aaron regularly posts comments on AdelaideNow and according to Atkinson he doesn’t exist and was an obvious Liberal Party plant.
Turns out Aaron Fornarino does exist and lives in his electorate. Naturally after this major stuff up and because of the huge uproar from everyone he did a huge back flip over the whole thing.
Well, it seems that another Labor MP, not wishing to be outdone for stupidity by her colleague, decides to put her foot firmly in her mouth while passing a public rally defending mental health and sexual abuse issues. I’m pretty sure she did not know this video existed when Hon JENNIFER RANKINE MP was talking to Leon Byner on Radio 5AA. She insisted the rally was organized by the Liberals when it fact it wasn’t. it was actually organized by some independents but no, she would have none of that!
As you can see from the video, the public are none to pleased with what she had to say. The angry uproar prevents us from hearing all of her spin but what is clearly heard is her saying “Happy to address a Liberal Party Rally”. When will they get it through their thick heads that there are people out their, who are not affiliated with the Liberal party, that are not happy with the way certain things are being handled by the current Labor Government.

Well me old mate, you do have it in for poor old Labor, don’t you? But to be fair if you are an idiot, own up to it and don’t dig a deeper hole for yourself. When you get to my age though, idiots do give you a pain in the ass whether they are the red or the blue kind.

Hey Peter, is it my fault if the turkeys keep giving me the ammunition for my posts? I let the Atkinson one go last week when he tried to censor the Net, I couldn’t let this latest gaff slip by. :wink_ee:
