The 1975 Exception | The Unimpeached One
https://theunimpeachedone.wordpress.com/2011/02/19/the-1975-exception
Thoughts from the other Andrew Johnson. February 19, 2011. Posted by theunimpeachedone in Federal. This lesson is an important one to learn not just in law school but also in the political school of the Australian Parliament. Anyone who suggests they are employing the 1975 strategy needs to remember those wise words, ‘1975 is the exception’. This thinking seems to have infected the Liberal Party. While Gillard’s grip on power remains tenuous Abbott continues to want to feed a sense of illegitim...Finally...

Thoughts from the other Andrew Johnson. For the sake of it: Howard vs Costello. October 31, 2010. Posted by theunimpeachedone in Federal. After a long hiatus (primarily as a result of a new job) I thought it was necessary to comment on what has turned out to be the most extraordinary twelve months in politics in my lifetime. But before I launch into that new world I thought I would take a moment to comment on the old world, the Howard world. With the release of Lazarus Rising. However, let’s explor...

What can ‘Can Do’ really do? | The Unimpeached One

Thoughts from the other Andrew Johnson. What can ‘Can Do’ really do? March 22, 2011. Posted by theunimpeachedone in Uncategorized. This promptly precipitated the resignation of John Paul Langbroek and Lawrence Springborg, finally putting paid to the chance of either becoming premier (I always thought a Springborg comeback was a possibility). We of course go the usual nice words about how Langbroek was a true gentleman leader which is code for weak and ineffectual. The idea of having to run in a seat need...

The selectors I likely to play it safe play a risk averse game to minimise criticism however it was bold selections like Tom Moody, Andrew Symonds and Brad Hogg that have won us World Cups in the past.

Life is like a box of Baci chocolates…. Meet the cotters…. Arrivando in Australia…home! Arrivando in Australia…home! December 5, 2010.

One Nation meets ABC Programming Department | The Unimpeached One

Thoughts from the other Andrew Johnson. One Nation meets ABC Programming Department. February 20, 2011. Posted by theunimpeachedone in Uncategorized. However, the question abounding on Twitter is why did the ABC invite Ian Nelson on to QandA at all? The lack of respect I have for the choice of panelists on QandA means my initial reaction is, ‘Who cares’? So, now we come to Tony Abbott’s role. Most recently when asked to explain whether he was taking policy from One Nation he claimed his record ...While i...

Thoughts from the other Andrew Johnson. Children in the Senate. June 21, 2009. Posted by theunimpeachedone in Uncategorized. I thought it was time to contribute something to my blog again. I thought about commenting on Ute-Gate but I think there is a lot to run in that saga and I can’t actually bear to watch any more of the Senate Estimates hearings. A saga which has surely run it’s course is Senator Sarah Hanson-Young and the furore over her two year old. Click to email (Opens in new window). Something ...
