The analogous drunken sailor eventually sobers up!

Appreciate the moderation of Tony Abbott in applying the 'spending like a drunken sailor' analogy to Gillard - without the suggestion that even the analogous drunken sailor eventually sobers up!

It is not the first time the PM was tired and certainly emotional: how about her illogical tears over the US man on the moon. And as dozens of Australian's are murdered by our so - called allies in Afghanistan, never mind the asinine war of coloured cliches like green on blue. Just remember her foreign policy crie de cueour - her international stage comment that ''...she would rather be in the classroom.'' As Aussies die for naught!

Julia proudly announces astonishing, irresponsible, massive new multi - billion Dollar expenses; simultaneously claiming the budget will still be balanced!
And that in spite of the obvious incipient demise of the resources boom and her faithful girlie Minister Plibersek admitted that the dental scheme is '' ...new money we will have to  find.''

Perhaps this will finally destroy her credibility in the eyes of voters: her unique brand of economic irrationalism writ large in everything she says, fails to do or finds Gillardian ways to mess - up.

Is there anything she has not messed up?
