I know you are very sensitive about this, Senator Abetz. If you read his comments it is quite clear that he comes to this issue not on the basis of conviction but only on the basis of opportunism. Mr Abbott said in April 2010:

I don’t think my assessment of the science or of the policies ever changed that much. I think all that really changed was my assessment of the politics of the issue.

Never a truer word. (Time expired)
