This is not a political statement - it's a JOKE right! Please take it in the manner intended - humourous. We're Australian, and as such are capable of laughing at anything even remotely funny - whether we believe in it or not! Taking the "p***" out of each other is Australian as it gets.
The libs have taken a hammering, rightly or wrongly - so here's one for them.
Anyone able to supply a counter-joke?
------------------------------------------
A bloke in a hot air balloon realises that he is lost. He reduces his altitude and spots a man fishing in a boat below.
He shouts to the other man below: "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet her an hour ago, but now I don't know where I am, or which way to go to get there."
The man below consults his GPS and replies: "You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 10 metres above the ground elevation of 115 metres above mean sea level. You are at 34 degrees, 34*97 minutes south latitude and 150 degrees, 34*52 minutes east longitude.
The balloonist rolls his eyes and says: "You must be a Liberal voter!"
"I am," says the fisherman. "How did you know?"
"Well," answers the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me! If anything, you've delayed my trip."
The man below smiled and replies, "You must be a Labor voter."
"I am," the balloonist said, "how did you know?"
"Well," the other man says, "you don't know where you are, where you are going, or how to get there. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of warm air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and now you expect me solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's still all my fault."
