Dogged With Redoubtable Stupidity

One wonders how moronic they think we
are. Mr Jeffrey William Seeney, Leader of
The Nationals, Leader of the Opposition,
Leader of the Queensland Coalition
(and Shadow Minister for Trade) had the
gall to say he believed that a minister who
hadn’t lied was worse than a liar because
she hadn’t told the truth in a believable way.

This of course implied she still lied. When
asked to clarify what he really meant he
denied he said she had lied in saying she
hadn’t told believable truth, but in his
august opinion she was an unmitigated
purveyor of untruths anyway – and no-
one could believe with a modicum of
confidence whatever she was saying.

Come now Jeff, as a well-known boofhead
with an unsavoury reputation for bullying –
you expect us to cop that? We see how
easily you fell short as a lawyer, yet stand,
nonetheless, to make a fair fist of being a
fearsome Queensland politician of the first
verse in doggerel, dogged unfortunately,
with redoubtable stupidity.
