Nice grapeshot, Noel.

So you've hoisted yourself upon your own petard, by stating that they
INDEED announced an opt-out system, prior to having to rush out a
retraction in record time.

It is so ridiculously easy to proof-read a document prior to posting it
online, it's not even funny. They couldn't even manage that.

Worse yet (!), if this was meant to be a political smokescreen to distract
the country from their utter lack of integrity by releasing their budget
costings AFTER the TV blackout, then it was a complete, utterly humiliating
failure. The techie community went ballistic in record time -- but the
media barely noticed it. The sneaks don't get off that easily -- not in a
country as politically engaged as Australia.

This is the laughable incompetence and lack of political judgement we're
seeing from your beloved future Abbott government. Mr Budgie Smugglers will
be the laughing stock of Christendom in no time once he's PM.

Colour me impressed.

Cheers, Ben.
