Will Gillard be the new PM… who cares.

Gillard

Speculation is buzzing this morning over the outcome of Labor's leadership challenge... will Kevin Rudd be toppled and Julia Gillard enthroned as the new ruler of Australia?  My response... who cares.

Why 'who cares'... because regardless of whether the democratic process is being spat on in the face, regardless of the historicity of the first female PM and regardless that the entire process took place in the cover of night, nothing will change.  Australians will wake up this morning to find that their Prime Minister will still be interested in plundering their property, ignoring their right to privacy and maintaining Australia in a state of perpetual warfare around the world.

Just a quick note to put things into perspective before you rant on too hard about the democratic process...

I agree completely.

A person should be voted in becasue they are the best person for the job.  not becasue they represent a certain minority or faction. that has had less time in power than another.

Every body gets a turn regardless of ability reminds me of a certain organization.
