Imagine that you are an adjudictor in question time and you have the God-forsaken task of assessing these egotists.
Who would be marked down the most in matter, method and manner?
For me it is David Kemp. [Rod Kemp who left parliament is just as bad] Or whichever Kemp is left. They both speak with mouth closed in a shrill, utterly irritating voice. They waffle about nonsense. There is no method to their speeches, just repeating claptrap. I think that any debating coach would just give up on David Kemp and shake his or her head in disbelief that if Amanda Vanstone can be taught Chinese at our expense, then why on earth hasn't anything been done to spare us from this dropkick who would have rotten fruit chucked at him at D grade.
I am, believe it or not, apolitical in all this. I hate John Howard and his policies, but I acknowledge that he is a solid debater and, at times as in his "Who do you trust" speech in the last election campaign, even brilliant.
I chose 4 from each side of politics. People like Julie Bishop were also worthy of lambastment but, to my regret, I couldn't fit her in.
Enjoy! ;D
