Cullen’s Wit

Michael Cullen has a superb wit in the House (except when he loses his rag), and even his targets appreciate it. Case in point from Rodney’s blog:

Rodney Hide: Has the Minister seen any reports of a political party that has always advocated extensive tax cuts, whatever the macroeconomic conditions, its own electoral fortunes, and the fads and fashions of politics–and, indeed, irrespective of floods and volcanoes?

Hon Dr MICHAEL CULLEN: Yes, I have. I have noted that both the size of the caucus and the size of its leader are shrinking at approximately the same rate.

Classic.
