Rubbish Politician Rubbish Cook

*Shakes head at political petulance*

Its Thursday the 3rd of September 2009 and if you live in Brisbane and have access to a car radio/the internet/the newspaper or socialise with other human beings (I understand this is not always possible...especially if you play WOW (brackets in brackets: for those of you that have not seen one of the many controversial doco's on gaming addiction, WOW stands for World Of Warcraft, a money making machine from those dirty bastards at Blizzard)) I am quite sure that you are now aware of the latest and greatest PR stunt our (QLD) premier is embarking on...Celebrity Masterchef Australia

Now I know there are ways to go about connecting with the general public, but a reality television program? 

I guess, if your like Darrell Summers, a reality television program provides you the opportunity to be thrust back into the limelight as one of Australia's favourite television personalities...well that was the idea anyway, I think his quest failed when he sang...obviously he was replaced with a much younger dick (with eyes)...but I digress

Needless to say, the liberals had a field day in question time...

The people that comprise the QLD parliament are people that WE elected because we believe that they are the best person for the job and that they are going to rightfully represent us (or community whatever) and "fight the good fight", of course its that or you just didn't want to vote greens/family first.

After the distribution of the all access passes to tear each other new assholes in question time (which isn't a bad thing, if they didn't nitpick everything the other party activities then it would be free reign and we would be in trouble)  the attack commenced.

After tweeting "I'm going on MasterChef. Still finalising recipes to showcase Qld produce - what are your ideas about Queensland's best products? Any recipe hints?" some of the higher calibre opposition representatives cared to offer Mrs. Bligh some suggestions;

"Corruption Cookies"

"Porkie Pies"

REALLLLLY CLEVERRRRRRR *pats head*

I have some suggestions:

A "why the fuck are you selling our infrastructure" burger

or a "what about our credit rating?" Pot roast? 

"Bottom line better now bitch" beef stew?

Anywhoosle, Im just saying that trying to appeal to a younger generation/a new segment by selling little bits of your dignity by paying someone to use new technologies and what not on your behalf is vacuous...

Enjoy your Thursday
