Mate, all Labor people will shed a tear tonight(plenty right here and now). then we'll organise to **** up the other mob.....Bob would have loved it

"Any boss who sacks a worker for not turning up today is a bum"
I really couldn't give a **** about politics but Bob's statement when we won the America's Cup in 1983 has to be one of the best political comments ever!

RIP Bob.

Met some pretty hardcore sailors with zero creature comforts that sail around the world on the smell of a oily rag with nothin g to their name

Way back Bill Hayden was a lay down mezare to win government for Labor when the Labor power brokers went to Bill and said "Hey Bill, how about you step aside and let Aussia Bob take the reins?? Don't worry, we got a good job lined up for you. How about Gov Gen??"

That is what happened and that is the time the Labor party completely sold out to the unions.

I never had time for Hawke then and don't have now. To Bob I say B.O.B., Better Off Buried.

Labor true believers often credit Gough Whitlam as transforming the nation but in truth, no single government did more for transforming and modernising our nation more than the Hawke - Keating powerhouse.

Utterly brilliant, utterly fallible and utterly Australian.

Spotted in Oxford last year...Respect

I am greatly saddened by Bob Hawke's death. He was a political collossus who left the nation with many gifts, and was a pretty good bloke as well. He was from the days when people of real talent and self-sacrifice ran the country, something we haven't seen for a long time.

APEC, Medicare, Superannuation are just three of the major innovations of the Hawke, Keating government. I must say I was never a sculler of beer so that yard glass effort is ridiculous! He is the father of modern Australia. You are all living in it and have benefited from his reforms. Imagine life without just those 3 things above.... People talk about Howard being such a wonderful Prime Minister but he was washed along by the rivers of gold flooding their coffers from the mining boom. What did he do? What was his legacy? Gun control = good. Surplus = good. But he gave us compulsory private health care whilst subsidizing the providers to the tune of billions, money that could have been spent on public health care removing the need for private health; sold our gold reserves for a pittance and crashed the global gold market at the same time (gold went up 3 fold in the years that followed), bought elections through small tax cuts/ baby bonus etc.. and eventually intentionally (I believe) lost that last election because everyone knew the global financial crisis was looming so they could sit in opposition and rag the Labor party about how bad they were going. Bob is the father of modern Australia and the greatest Prime Minister. Ever....Now, who to vote for this year? Clive? Pauline?
RIP Bob...

It seems your opinon is very limited to yourself on this one Cisco.

About that I give not a twit you twat.

Unlike you, I come not here to be Mr. Popularity.

Besides which only the last sentence of my post was opinion. The rest is FACT.

I lived through it, you did not. I was in Baghdad while you were still in Dad's bag.
