Wicked "blonde" comment in an Australian parliament



Conservative politician refers to a young Leftist politician in an "offensive" manner:
"Opposition Leader John-Paul Langbroek has been accused of offending women in [Queensland] State Parliament after referring to a female Minister as "illegally blonde". Speaking in Parliament this morning, Mr Langbroek was criticising a speech made by Climate Change Minister Kate Jones and then referred to her as "the Minister for illegally blonde''.

Legally Blonde, starred Hollywood siren Reese Witherspoon, as a supposedly dumb blonde sorority queen who went to law school.

An angry Ms Jones immediately demanded he withdraw the comment. "If that is what you said I find it offensive and I find it offensive for every woman who sits in this house,'' she said.

Amid calls from the Opposition MPs that she "can't take it", Mr Langbroek withdrew the comment.

This is all a bit hard to follow but I think the lady has let her side down. If "legally blonde" or just "blonde" implies stupidity, surely "illegally blonde" implies the opposite? The lady seems not to be deep thinker: A kneejerk reaction instead, the familiar Leftist rage. Or is any reference to blondeness "offensive"? Rather strange in the light of how many women dye their hair blonde.

So, it's perfectly fine to call people names?

In the movie people thought she was dumb, but she was actually very smart. I would have taken it as a compliment.

A Blonde

Does it really matter? Any country that has a "Climate Change Minister" is already admitting to being FUBAR! Besides, the only way to know if she's a "legal" blond, would be to get her knickers off.

She don't have to drop her knickers, B Hill.

Mr Langbroek's verbal surrender has shown the world who the REAL pussy is.

How telling. Yet another example of a politician who is so inept that she has to pull the "offense" card to deflect the truth away from the fact of her ineptness.
