T.O.T.A.

The carbon dioxide tax is coming, the mining tax is coming, the boats are coming—and Labor is going.
But the theatre of the absurd that is Canberra keeps on keeping on:
The most ridiculous moment of the week was revealed on website thetelegraph.com.au on Thursday, when Gemma Jones reported that “several of Ms Gillard’s backers in caucus sent a warning to MPs who might be considering swinging behind Kevin Rudd to take back the leadership, threatening she would quit parliament and vacate her seat if they tried to blast her out of the job”.
Sounds like the scene from Blazing Saddles in which the sheriff of Rock Ridge takes himself hostage and threatens to shoot himself unless he is released by a vigilante mob.
