Way to shoot yourself in the foot Tony Abbott.
What were you thinking when you came up with this pearler, uttered after a grilling by The Australian Women’s Weekly? Yes you read that right–a magazine well known for squeezing hard hitting political stories among its recipes and diet tips.
Tony Abbott you are clueless yet you were doing so well. As Federal Opposition Leader you made good points over the summer break when Prime Minister Rudd was promoting his children’s book and dithering about not making decisions.
And then this comment. Backed up with his equally controversial “ambivalence toward contraception” comment, Abbott is doing a fabulous job of alienating female voters. His best job since his stance on the anti abortion drug, RU486. Little wonder he’s nicknamed the Mad Monk.
Tony Abbott I have two words for you. SARAH PALIN. Look what this woman’s archaic views about abstinence, sex education and contraception led to. Another two words. TEENAGE PREGNANCY.
And now Tony Abbott not only have you made voters think you hold views more in line with the Vatican than a modern age parliamentarian, you have tried to justify your comments by saying they were in the context of your daughters.
Those poor, poor girls. If I were them I would hate you. These girls will be the biggest targets since well, Britney Spears, and what a big farce that turned out to be with her getting all jumpy with Justin Timberlake.
Abbott’s daughters are aged 21, 18 and 16. What if they’ve already lost their virginity? How would Tony Abbott know? Do they bring it up over the dinner table? “Oh, Dad, just wanted to let you know that no one’s watered my lady garden yet.”
He might be their father but it is none of his business. And nor was it the business of any of ours until good old dad made it magazine fodder.
Imagine the poor 16 year old lobbing into class this week. Is she henceforth known as the Ice Queen or Frigid Briget? Does every private school boy in town make her his mission? Does Abbott want her to take part in one of those creepy chastity ceremonies?
Maybe her older sister had it right when she called Abbott a “lame, gay, churchy loser”. Maybe we don’t have to worry about these girls, they seem to have the measure of their father.
But no more from me on this subject. It just plain creepy. And you Tony Abbott, two more words for you. SHUT UP.

That’s a good sight. A maybe prime minister in his dickstickers. He doesn’t look too bad for an old dude tho.
Who is this dude?
