Australia's conservative leader Tony Abbott claims victory in Australia's federal election during an election night function in Sydney September 7, 2013. Abbott swept into office in a landslide election on Saturday as voters punished the outgoing Labor government for six years of turbulent rule and for failing to maximise the benefits of a now fading mining boom.

"Among the contenders for his most extreme viewpoint is his belief that the science around climate change is "absolute crap." "

The guy is an intellectual hero.

Tony Abbott, head of the conservative Liberal Party

I'll take your word for it. And yes, I understand that Conservatism is Classical Liberalism. Modern Liberalism is nothing, but thinly veiled Marxism.

His ‘most extreme viewpoint’ is held, evidently, by a huge majority of Australian voters. I might have to move.

I’d say, “Wahoo!” But the article then goes on to say he’ll spend $3 BILLION in grants & subsidies to encourage energy efficiency. NO. Spend the next 6 months explaining why ‘climate change’ is BS & save the $!!

Let’s put it this way — the Australian Liberal Party is RELATIVELY conservative compared to the Labor party.

Climate change is a carbon toll booth. It’s a genocide program of pay up or we will kill you. Same with Obama care. Bureaucrats need that a well a private collection agencies run by Al Gore.

There is no basis for it but encroach.

I think most of them like it better there than here.

I’d say that we might be seeing MORE Americans moving to Australia if Dems continue to be on control of the Federal government.

Let’s examine the voting process down under — betcha there’s a tighter grip and avoidance of fraud and abuse.

The Aussies keep the boat illegals off the continent detaining them offshore when they are caught.

The government listens to the wishes of the people and maintains border security aggressively and I’m talking about the Labor Party that has been in power recently.

Tony Abbott will no doubt stiffen the policies against illegal immigration as prime minister.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls our climates.

3. The earth is a rock.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

That's like claiming you can "fight" hurricanes.
