This morning they had some guy on who I think works for/with some weather company. Coshy was being his pushy self and ranting on how the CEO's of leading banks and insurance companies have commented on how global warming is to blame for all the recent (yeah right) severe weather.

Every single time Coshy quoted someone this other guy shot him down so quickly, and his right. Of course Banks are going to say that, it makes them look good taking the "green approach" and insurance companies are just out to scare everyone and also take the good publicity.

It was so refreshing for someone to finally talk some common sense!

Coshy was struggling, looking through his notes and Mel had to step in at the end and say the good old line "I think we will agree to disagree".

What a great start to the morning.
Dammit the one day i miss Coshy going on about something he gets shut down, sometimes this word really is cruel :

Good to hear though :

I hope this pops up on youtube, i am not a Kochie fan. Andrew Bolt (Herald Sun Journalist) is the champion of common sense, he says what many are scared to talk about, i hope he enters politics.

Yep if you know your stuff (subject matter expert), are well prepared for a debate and keep you cool, the chances are you'll win or make the other side look ordinary more often than not.

Emotion and opinion mean nothing if you don't know what you're talking about, and are up against a cool headed dude who really does.

Bad luck Koshie Lol !!!
