ACMA held an enquiry into statements Kyle Sandilands made against a journalist. He criticized her clothes and her body shape on radio. Germaine Greer criticized Julia Gillard's clothes and her body shape on TV, and like Kyle, in a nasty way. Neither one of them could call themselves an authority on fashion. I think that Julia Gillard dresses very appropriately for the role of Prime Minister.
I must admit that when I first heard those remarks, I was deeply disappointed in Ms Greer because I thought that she would be one person that would be sympathetic to the female cause. Surely, we should be beyond such vicious statements in this day and age.
But, the plot thickens. Our fearless opposition leader has put his 2cents worth in as well. How low can that person stoop? Can anybody recall Julia Gillard commenting on his budgie smugglers or his lycra bike riding gear? There is only one other politician who would probably be so stupid and that would be George W Bush. If Abbott ever becomes PM I'm sure we'll experience many cringe-worthy embarrassing moments.
I am not religious, but, please god, save us from him.
