"Good morning, this is Warren Entsch..."

LNP candidate for Leichhardt Warren Entsch, wanted a piece of CairnsBlog at some un-godly hour this morning, when most respectful bloggers have just gone to bed...

[UPDATE: I've had too many calls today from pro-Libs saying this voice mail message doesn't paint Wazza in a good light. I disagree. It shows a great sense of humour from the former Member.] Download MP3

Gawd, imagine that voice beside you in bed in the mornings!

Guess you know to dim the volume low on your phone for such ignorant folks who lack appreciation for the the joy and demands of late night intellectual pursuits.

Plus sounds like he might have been on the piss the night before - and a touch still tippy.

I applaud a politician who doesn't toady to the media.

Miss Creant (archaic def) said...

Sounds as though he's trying to convince you that he actually has what Jen Sackley claims he's missing.

Destiny said...

Ellen McIntyre, former ABC Radio morning host, talked of much worse early morning calls with coarser language, and not as matey, which contributed, along with things like the attack on her house, to her leaving the job and the north.

Wake up, Wazza! said...

But were her callers also running for government at the time...

Destiny said...

Caller - singular, and in government at the time. I wasn't posting about a caller unrelated to this topic.

where's wazza? said...

Is it just me - but the sound file seems to have disappeared? I was just going to record it onto my alarm clock.

Ceasar said...

stuff me I WOULD HATE TO BE YOUR ENEMY MIKE . This is how you treat people who end their call mate.

Barry James, Freshwater (real name) said...

Not even really worth responding to cowards with fake names "Ceasar" however, you obviously have a rather diminished IQ that you can't see a joke when there's one right under your ears......

Surprising actually... as you're probably in the Labor camp and should easily spot a joke!!

Warren was being funny, cheeky if you like.

In fact, after I played this a few times, he kinda grows on ya a bit.

Get a life

I did not call you mikey mikey smoochy woochy.

Entsch doesn't need to toady to the media Syd. rugnut is in love with him.

Jasminda said...

Destiny, Ellen McIntyre wasn't the only female journalist to feel threatened by Entsch. I know of another young journalist who spoke to me of her experiences.

Previously Undecided said...

And to think I was considering voting for this clown. I am glad I got to hear the guys real personality at work before I went and wasted my vote on the old soak. The beacon red head that lights up like a Christmas tree at the first sign things are not going his way should have tipped me off that he is partial to the odd nudge of the bottle.

I'll be damned if I want a drunken driver at the wheel of this electorate.

Dan Daman said...

Destiny, many vague suggestions, if you can't come up with some names and times etc. why waste everones time?

Leuco Gaster said...

Dan, anyone who knows Entsch well also knows that he responds to questioning of his integrity with abuse and personal threats. He is a troglodyte, and sadly the best we can hope for is that he'll be in opposition, and Senator McLucas will be the de-facto MP for Leichhardt.

Thaddeus said...

"Troglodyte seems to have emerged from the mists of time untouched by human evolution. Devoid of a single progressive idea and lacking the slightest awareness of social and cultural advances, Troglodyte has developed an incoherent political philosophy that he characterizes as "conservative" or "libertarian", but which could be more accurately described as "bigoted narcissism". His aggressive posturing often frightens off weaker, more timid Warriors. In pitched battle, however, Troglodyte easily loses control and his attack quickly degenerates into a rant."
Yeah, this is Entsch alright, particularly his aggressive posturing.
