Journalists upset: how dare Abbott say this woman has sex appeal Commentators on Sky News are in deep disapproval and note "raised eyebrows." A Fairfax journalist is reminded of Tony Abbott's "woman problem": A classic divide between the commentariat and the professional offence-taking crowd. Most punters would say Abbott spoke no more than the plain truth, and did it with a laugh. If journalists really think he's out of order, then explain why newspapers publish photos of Scott like the one above. Punters hate hypocrites and the sanctimonious. And they know sex appeal when they see it. Watch the ghastly moment when Tony Abbott committed what some Channel 7 journalist insists was a "gaffe": Here are some of the politicians and journalists who are banned under the no-hypocrites rule from attacking Tony Abbott. Crikey and the Sydney Morning Herald: December 28, 2005 - 3:45PM Former Labor Senate leader John Faulkner and Labor health spokeswoman Julia Gillard have been declared Australia's sexiest politicians. In a straw poll of readers conducted by the political website crikey.com.au, Senator Faulkner was selected hands down as sexiest male politician of 2005. Any Labor MPs at Bob Hawke's 80th birthday party: Kevin Rudd and Warren Snowdon: What Rudd said then: Not withstanding the fact that I had had too much to drink, I have no recollection (nor does Mr Snowdon) of any incident occurring at the nightclubâor of being asked to leave. It is our recollection that we left within about an hour... What Guzman's admittedly hyperbolic writ now claims: Defendant Allan took two Australian political leaders to the strip club Scores in Manhattan, where they watched strippers perform, reportedly had too much to drink, and were ejected from the club by its bouncers. Some news.com.au journalists: HAVE you ever thought, "our politicians are so drab"?... But below sit ten Australian pollies who are as sizzling off camera as they are on... Larissa Waters is one of the few exceptions to the rule: this gal is smokin" hot! Seventy federal politicians: KATE Ellis, the vivacious federal Minister for Youth and Sport, has been chosen as Australia's sexiest MP in a poll of her political peers... In an Australian first, nearly 70 federal MPs and senators have offered an unprecedented insight into what drove them to get into politics and what they read, listen to and watch. Kevin Rudd and perhaps even the ABC's Latika Bourke: Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has angered feminists after making "sexist" remarks to a female reporter who turned up at a press conference wearing a fedora hat, a white shirt and a long grey tie. Instead of answering journalist Latika Bourke's serious question about why his flagging leadership is "in crisis," the Labour leader gazed up and down at her clothing before giving a bizarre response. He said: "Well, that's a point of language which you have used which is dramatically consistent with the dress which you have chosen today." Miss Bourke refused to comment on Mr Rudd's remarks today... No man on Labor's front bench: Thanks to many readers.
