stephbgI'm trying to identify how the behaviour of our federal politicians in parliament makes me feel.
Embarrassed and appalled is a good start, but somehow not enough. Aghast requires too much energy, but saddened somehow doesn't cut the mustard.
"Merchant of Venice"
"Prime Tourist" etc
FFS
I can't believe how petty and childish it gets in there. I should, but I can't. The worst bit is that look of pride when they say something particularly sound-bite-friendly, but delivered with all the spontenaity of a nuclear treaty.
It's such a damn waste of TIME. Hmmmmm. I think irritated is winning the race here.
How does it make you feel? I'm quite keen to know.
