GLOBAL WARMING HILLBILLIES

It is a good thing that Tim Flannery’s original field of scientific expertise was palaeontology- fossils- because he frequently encounters annoying modern day rock apes . Take the 18/10 ABC Q and A debate in which he was scoffed at, ridiculed and interrupted by global warming sceptic,biologist Jennifer Marohasy. The understandable exasperation of Flannery was evident. The performance by the Shadow for Climate Change, Greg Hunt, was like one of those well scrubbed members of the Junior Chamber of Commerce of yesteryear. Former military lawyer, Mike Kelly, whose moustache drew admiring twitter comments, came through as a real asset to the Federal government. He shot windy Hunt down with short sharp bursts. Most wounding was his comment that he knew Hunt wanted climate action, was a small l Liberal, but was on a front bench from Jurassic Park. Kelly also used a biblical reference about the cock crowing thrice to demolish Hunt, an act which would have attracted a blessing from a brand new Aussie saint , seeing she became hot under the habit when confronted by blind men in power.
