Bluntj:
My main objection is being labelled a coalition basher, which seems to be the norm if you disagree in any way with any of the Governments decisions.
Incorrect, although the opposite is most certainly the case. The level of emotiveness by some is laughable. With regard to your post, based on the oft repeated rhetoric here, it was clearly the standard bashing. Bash first, confirm accuracy later. You had subsequently advised of what you misread, and thats been acknowledged. So, no biggie. But you must surely see why we might take that opinion initially? Id live to debate the issues, but they are not important, its the A vs B that matters, and yes that does go both ways, but IMHO there is a clear slant the blue way. Admittedly blue are miffed at losing, red be happy at winning, but it would be nice to have an adult conversation about the issue and have a seperate bashing thread.
