The Australian Media and Politicians acting like fools because a Federal Election is looming

Completely befuddled by the Australian Public and the Australian Media! Let's not focus on policy or the economy or issues of social justice and actually educate the community. Instead let us perpetuate a smoke screen of meaningless vitriol about restaurant menus and mens ties. F*ck me. The day we stop reacting to issues of gender and stop acknowledging the immaturity of people on both sides of the political divide and actually focus on what is good for us from a policy perspective, that'll be the day we achieve true equality. I am almost embarassed at times to be a women when I see other women continue to use gender as a headline grabber. Stop reacting to the bullies! Stop putting the gender card out as if it has some credibility. Just get on with the job - a job both genders are more than capable of fullfilling if they stop with the petty frigging crap that goes on in the name of politics. Just do the f*cking job you were voted in to do - represent your electorate, do it ethically, fairly and work bloody hard at it. This tit for tat friggen school yard crap (infants school at that) is beneath most Australians. This is definitely one example of where leadership should be about doing what's right and ingoring the idiots on the sideline. It's also example of where politics falls down - you might vote for a person because their policy and their individual character is most aligned to yours - but you end up having their efforts undermined by the very fools in their parties that perpetuate this bullshit! I think I have most of this off my chest. Let's get back to the policy issues, one we should be demanding is included across all parties is the banning of bullying for any reason from any campaign or political environment. I am so O V E R the football hooligan mentality that overruns the community at election time! T H I N K please!!!!!!
