Loved the bits that go "This person votes" Some utter tossers!
The federal seats of Guantanomo Bay and Baghdad.
Good so far....

Brilliant!! John Howard's lack of a sense of humour is just so un-Australian! ;)

even when the ABC try to avoid bias the liberal party act like snobs. great 30 minutes of tv, and i think we saw the true colours of some politicians in even that short a time frame.

The stooge call to Alan Jones was hillarious.

Liked the Greens ad as well - Vote for the Greens to reduce your middle class guilt! :D

john laws was sharp on that stooge call - at least he's good at something.
Some of the banners running along the bottom, 'APEC shirts found in a dumpster at Kirribilli', 'Corkage costs more than the bottle of wine', 'Howard claims his electorate name is white' (or something like that).

I didn't have time to read them unfortunately, was paying too much attention to everything else going on. People, feel free to type them all on here for the enjoyment of all!

one of them claimed a politician was less popular in tasmania than martin bryant - bit much for mine,
Loved the coalition pun and am looking foward to Latham/Cabbie rematch (although this was shown on The Panel the night before).

You have to watch the show twice- once for the actual show and tape it to watch the scrolling newsbar.
I loved Chas reading the Liberal party line word for word to the Parrot- :D . Jones must be dumber than we think.
I did like the Batman in the background of the tally room :D

I think it went "John Howard wishes his seat was named after a white"

I actually burst out laughing at "Howard claims rising petrol prices will have no effect on nursing home baths" :D

not a nutcase, just an ****hole. thought he deserved to treat the journo like **** simply because he is in a job which has more power.

So true.

Don't think it is too hard to work out who Jones will be voting for. He even added more "facts" to what Chas was saying.
I did like the Batman in the background of the tally room :D
Would have to be the leading candidate for the electorate called Batman. ;)
Also, loved the Sofie Lee vote for the endangered specie ad for the Democrats.

Great show, I couldn't stop laughing!
Used to be able to download the newsbar, but I don't think you can anymore.
Petition of 43 munitions workers supports war in Iraq.
Book club quickly descends into bitch about boyfriends.
Stott Despoja wonders whether the 'Glass house" has lost her number.
Voter asks for election promises in cash
Greeks not sure if Olympic success compensates for Nick giannopolous visit.
Jet enters studio to plagiarise new album.

You didn't miss much.
Very disappointing - juvenile, very undergrad, lacking any wit or sophistication.
For once I agreed with Abbott when he told one of the clowns - 'Mate, you're not funny.'

I loved the bungee jumper in the background......and the captions for each of the panellists, renamed as Kath and Kim characters, with the caption "We want to keep the Kath and Kim audience" :D
