WTF? Now SSJoe wants me to fund his war?

He won't give up, still trying to fuck over the poor.

At first I thought it was just a bit of bluster, but in classic Smokin Sloppy Joe style he firmly puts his foot in his mouth. He linked the stalled welfare budget cuts in the senate to the fuckin war FFS.

However, the Treasurer said if Mr Shorten was "honest" about his promise of bi-partisan support for Australia's mission in Iraq, he would pass budget measures currently stalled in Parliament. 

"We will spend what we need to spend to defend the nation," Mr Hockey said. 

"Given that we spend tens of billions of dollars each year on defence we have the capacity to deliver what we say we are going to deliver and it's another good reason for Mr Shorten to immediately pass the remaining measures in the budget. 

"Everything comes at a cost and if Bill Shorten truly is honest about his commitment to deliver bipartisan support in relation to our defence efforts in the Middle East he'll provide bi-partisan support to pay for it," he said. 

While Mr Abbott on Thursday declined to back his Treasurer's call, the opposition's treasury spokesman Chris Bowen attacked the tactic as "disgraceful" and "blackmail". 

"Just when you think Joe Hockey can't stoop any lower, there he is. Australians won't be blackmailed into supporting this unfair budget," Mr Bowen said. 

"It is simply disgraceful that Joe Hockey is trying to link his failed budget with national security. Under no circumstances should our international obligations be used to justify the cuts or taxes in this budget," he said. Read more

So in essence, he wants people like me living on a shoestring to fund his stupid fuckin war. 

Not even Abbott backed him up on that one.
