Kevin Andrews: Farewell
Kevin Andrews: Farewell
& Good Riddance
So, great news this week in Australian politics!
At least and at last some of the scum has begun oozing out under the parliamentary doors. Important slime in this case.
But why is it that the “Father Of the House” is always the worst of the worst?
Before, it was Ruddock, the Nazgul, the nastiest, slimiest bastard who ever pissed and farted his way into the House pretending to be the friend of the People, as long as the “people” were white and/or wealthy. Oh, and straight. And didn’t arrive by boat. He was an abusive “Father” of the House as a Minister. He was malevolent and merciless as the Minister for Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs, particularly for his heartless treatment of desperate refugees escaping from wars that Australia’s arsonist “Liberal”/Nationalist politicians had gleefully and enthusiastically (and frankly cock-suckingly) helped to ignite. As Attorney General in 2003 he “introduced the Marriage Legislation Amendment Bill to prevent any possible court rulings allowing same-sex marriages or civil unions.” Nice guy—other crusading decisions on same-sex marriage suggest he was channeling god’s hatred of homos. Worst of all perhaps was his hypocritical wearing of the Amnesty International badge at the same time he was systematically and brutally denying aid to the very people Amnesty International was fighting to support.
But that was before.
The current Father of the House is not long for this political world, and in contrast to the abusive “Father” of the House Ruddock, this one has been a “Deadbeat Dad“; a useless, stupid—and therefore dangerous—piece of shit. They love him in the House because he’s perfect for the Libs—a Useful Idiot; a biddable dickhead; Australia’s version of America’s Lindsey Graham, or the UK’s Chris Grayling.
What happened?
Well . . . ‘Howard-era stalwart’ Kevin Andrews was (what they call in the US) “primaried“ for the seat of Menzies by the barrister and former soldier Keith Wolahan. Everything is right about this, if more than a decade late. Values Australia has been calling for Andrews’ dishonorable discharge since 2007. He has lost the ultra-right seat honouring the crumbling horror that was Menzies.
Not only that, but he was vigorously supported in his reselection by the top conservative powerbrokers:
- Health Minister Greer Kunt
- Education Minister Ellen Bludge
- Assistant Treasurer Michail Sucks
- Treasurer Jess Friedeggburger
- Scum from Marketing
- and, best of all, John Hunt the Coward
A really delectable and comprehensive FAIL.
Why did Values Australia call for Kevin Andrews’ removal/ departure/resignation/whatever it takes?
Because he was/(is) incompetent, inhumane in the way only self-righteous christians can be, and—because unintelligent, weak and biddable—dangerous as a loose cannon.
In a post on 2 November 2007 we reported on the ongoing Haneef scandal:
“They were ripping up the doctrine of the separation of powers,” Mr Barns said.
“What you are seeing here is the politicisation of an investigation …”
“It shows there was a pre-judgment by Minister Andrews and the Government, prior to the magistrate’s decision being taken, and this decision was politically stage-managed rather than being done according to law.”
Andrews was at the time Minister for Immigration under the soon to be unceremoniously jettisoned John Howard.
As Sir Roger said at the time, Andrews was “now reduced to being the bumboy for a frail, doomed old man.”
He dog-whistled racist bullshit about Sudanese refugees to Pauline’s base in the run-up to the election. Unsuccessfully.
But mostly he should have resigned 13 years ago (or earlier if possible) because for party political advantage, for religious and ideological reasons, contrary to the impartiality of the law, contrary to the interests of the country, you might think well and truly contrary to his oath, and solely in the interests of re-election (oops), he politicised a criminal investigation, prejudged a defendant, preempted a magistrate’s finding and in the process nearly destroyed and sacrificed an innocent man’s life to the racist, morally corrupt Liberal Party.
Sir Roger couldn’t be happier to see the last of Andrews and to see the power of the Power Elite of the government tumbling, crumbling, collapsing, decaying, decomposing, degenerating, deteriorating, disintegrating, dissolving, fragmenting, perishing, putrefying, going to pieces
Here are some of the Values Australia historical blog posts that are more or less relevant to Andrews:
