The Ando Zone: Episode 2

Today Ando was claiming the election of the ALP could result in 500 road accidents a year.

I don't know. How can you elaborate on that? It's regarding a statement released by Ando, titled "Labor's plan for Five Hundred Road Crashes a Year," which has since had its name changed on the National's website. The whole thing is from Latho mentioning there was savings to be had within the Black Spot project. And BOOM! Ando went on the attack! Go Ando!

The ALP transport guy (Martin Ferguson) had this to say in response:

"This comes from a man who goes around promoting himself as Australia's leading Christian politician and the claim is nothing more than a blatant lie. His claims are beneath contempt and for anyone to suggest that the Opposition is advocating a policy that will put people's lives at risk is a disgrace."

Read all about it over in The Australian's story, Outrage At Anderson's Road Carnage Claim.

And there was also an anonymous comment the other day in here:

Got an "Ando Zone" item for you: on ABC-TV news tonight, during a story about the big paedophile bust, they played comments by the main party leaders. Ando said (approx): "This is another demonstration that in the 1960s and 1970s we relaxed too many social taboos."

I can't confirm this as I can't find any news stories on it, but yes Ando, I'm sure paedophilia never existed before the 1960s. Tool.
