I love the “we don’t talk to pollsters”. Like the “we don’t talk to strangers” used as an automatic prophylactic by our mums when we were confronted by drunks, made people and evangelists. The great think about fdotm is that no detail is there without a reason. You have to clock them all; every one.
But why does the child change telephone hands? Is there some secret Liberal Party code signal being transmitted?
Well done FD.
Every now and then, the God of cartoonists offers up a free kick that is just too juicy to ignore!!
But the cartoonist still has to get it through the goalposts.
You’ve just nailed it, booted it out of the ground and won the match. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Where are these robot call centres? I want to burn one down too. And it would be a bonus if the idiots from the ALP’s marketing department where there when I did it.
Delightful, and charming. Definite t-shirt material here. “We don’t talk to pollsters” is classic First Dog.
Baby dog enchanting.
“Can’t the ALP do anything right?” At the moment it looks that way. And to think it was that Tony Abbott creep in the budgie smugglers who has turned the tide against our Kevin.
Mr On the Moon aka First Dog, you have a lot to answer for.

March 18, 2010 at 3:12 pmTypical Crikey inaccuracy – Robocop and Daleks are not robots, they are cyborgs.

[FIrstdog: Got the details straight off the press release. Can’t the ALP do anything right?]

March 18, 2010 at 4:20 pmI think the Lost in Space robot would have done a much better job for the ALP. More succinct at least.
I like snorting ibis.
