If she is in your cabinet witherd I want in. My wife may kill me, but i'm only human, i'm allowed to look, not touching will be the hard part : )

LOL XG, I shall pencil you in then 😉

Start with the beer, apparently it makes you more sexy...

I for one am looking forward to less of .... and more of ....

Great cab, good luck mate.

need more ~Roboa~

who are the "reserved" places? and why are they listed as reserved?

"There are a couple I am still waiting to hear from, so those positions will be labelled as reserved."

Apparently this dirty little sekrit is revealed in 3rd paragraph.

"who are the "reserved" places? "

Psh. Obviously it's been a few years since you've stepped into a restaurant, Larni. 😛

but who are they? Its fairly common practice to list people and just note they have not replied yet.

just looks sus

It would be funny if people who commented on this thread turn up in the "reserved" spot.
just sayin

Didn't XG also have someone reserved?

Wow Larni, really clutching at straws arent you dear. The names are very obviously held in confidence, and i am not one to betray anyones confidence, not even for one so boisterous as you.

@Roboa, if you came back to eAus, I would most definitely have a spot for you my friend.

no albino squirrels = no vote

Well, maybe XG's one of the reserved peeps. And maybe witherd1's reserved in XG's cab too. Dun dun dun.
OR maybe Icetek's going to spring up in there 😛 He seems rather nice and perfect for the MoI or the MoFA. /s

makes sense

WTF is this Tooheys crap ???

LOL Venja, its the vibe of it!

Added Jeff Vader to one of the "reserved" spots.

I will add, that I figure perhaps Larni is questioning whether someone like Icetek or Binda will be in the reserved spot, the answer is no. The last reserved spot for MoFA will be a very neutral person, like the rest of my Cabinet, there will be no Binda's or Larni's in this Cabinet.

"someone like Icetek or Binda will be in the reserved spot."

Pretty much yeah, are you simply putting reserved so you don't get the anti Binda vote or something. Like how PG decided to omit her from his cabinet originally but put her in as soon as he became CP.

"there will be no Binda's or Larni's in this Cabinet."

Massive mistake there Withered, good luck struggling with the same contacts from this month. It also shows you're not interested in anything other than surrounding yourself with 'yes men' which is a very bad thing for a CP.

"No Bindas or Larni's in MY yes man Government"
That sounds so prejudicial, smacking of dislike, hatred even.
the fact you ignore them is like casting pearls before swine
Jeff Vader is a good choice though - I doubt he will be a yes man

YOU HAVE BEEN DENIED OF LARNIS SUPER DUPAH POWERS YOU WILL NOT BE SINGLEHANDEDLY SACKING JAVA TONIGHT BABEH WITHERED.
/me larni cackles

I just figured I would save myself the hassle of having to replace you when you throw a tantrum and storm out three days in, Larni.

So, it looks like there is no way you are going to tell us who the highly controversial person you have planned to fill the highly important MoFA position with then witherd.
We can only hope it isn't Icetek

No controversy Louise, but nice try. You do realise XG had me labelled as "reserved" until I told him just to put my name in, right? I dont believe anyone gave him a hard time, but then, you and Larni were in his corner...

I will say flat out that it is not Icetek, Binda, Larni, Tim Holtz, or anyone "controversial". You cant get a straighter answer than that, and if I am lying now, not that there would be much point, you can feel free to impeach me if Im elected.

Fact is, the last MoFA slot hasnt been confirmed, as I stated clearly in my article. If you wish to continue this conversation, please feel free to send me a message so we can speak more directly.

Im his MoFA, But i declined due to the fact that he wouldnt hire oh dear hero of all Icetek.

^THANK GOD FOR ICETEK THEN.

Storm out in 3 days? hahahaha That was because I refused to bow down to your authoritah.

And what a fine month the Gov has had since I left. Your dCP term was a complete failure Withered. You failed to have any influence or impact, your Cabinet trolled and failed all over the place netting us a deal with Chile that gets us 1k aud a day... so no military funding... without a military where are we exactly?

Me walking away from the mess was a smart move at least I still have honour intact.

Sweetheart, you wouldn't know honour if it came up and sat on your face.

"I left because I don't actually like doing anything I'm told 😛"

"I will say flat out that it is not Icetek, Binda, Larni, Tim Holtz, or anyone "controversial". You cant get a straighter answer than that, "
That's cool witherd, and I was cool with you being in XG's cabinet, and for that matter him being in yours.
you ignoring Binda & Larni I am sad about. Icetek & Tim Holtz and TJ (he is controversial) \o/

My opinion for what its worth Larni is an honourable person.

Well I have an Order of Australia, am a multi time CP, 3x NSA Director and eWorld wide respected military commander by both allies and enemies(when they let me out of the kitchen) Pretty sure the three of those qualify me as honourable.

Really Withered, there was no reason to attack me in the first place and Binda... her record is longer than mine, Order of Aus, 20x + Senator, former CP, ST6 Commander, Senate Speaker god knows how many times... She hadn't even commented when you attacked her.

Do I detect a case of misogyny? Are you really a sexist in need of a reality check?

Pull your head it.

ASIO was cooler than NSA. x2
Not everyone cares about being a CP either.
Even I could list of a bunch of positions to make myself sound cool like you Larni, I doubt that would make me an "honourable" person 😉

Sexism is bad okay Julia.

"Do I detect a case of misogyny? Are you really a sexist in need of a reality check?"

OMG Yes, isn't it strange how ePolitics is following RL : )

withered1 the eRep Tony Abbott

"ah...ah...Burn the witch"

v. best of luck!

Wow Larni. You troll me and then youre surprised when I bite back? You aren't too bright Im thinking. And, tell me where I "attacked" Binda? All I said was she will not be in my Cabinet.

I could care less about your resume right now, when all you do is troll and attack people. That has nothing to do with misogyny, its just a case of I dont like what you are doing or how you are doing it. Pretty simple really.

witherd does not like Larni so she is out. That is the bottom line, so we will leave it at that

On the contrary Louis, I actually do like Larni when she isnt on her trolling spree, or acting overly arrogant. I have had some great conversations with Larni in the past. But you are right, we should just drop this, its not healthy.

Are you noticing people are saying the same thing Louise? Maybe instead of acting bullish you should take some of your own advice once in awhile.

I was only questioning the 'reserves' that were listed. After the PG stuff you're much better coming out and saying who is at least 'optioned' whether or not they have accepted it.

Thats all well and good Larni, but some people may not wish to be listed, especially when they are still thinking about it, and campaigning against you 😉
