MSM doesn't get "Detroying the Joint" and what it really means.

5. I think Julia's speech will outlive both the Slipper affair and Tony Abbott.

I didn't find Slipper's comments particularly offensive - "juvenile" is the word I'd use. Not worthy of a man in his position, but both sides of politics have been aware of his personal shortcomings for years, and both chose to ignore that when it suited them. I am far more offended by the many slights against women that have come from Tony Abbott's mouth over the years.

I've read this week that Slipper is having to sell some property to meet his legal bills, which are apparently over $400,000. Big question is - who is paying for Ashby's legal bills? The whole point of this exercise is to bring down Peter Slipper so Mal Brough can take his place - I hope Labor is digging into just who knew what, and when they knew it. There are still many unanswered questions on this one.
