Tony Abbott is a little 'confronting' in his own right.

The Blowfly has been following the debate about the wearing of the burqa by Muslim women.

He has found himself bemused by the language being used.

Tony Abbott has used 'understandable community concerns' and he says he found burqas 'confronting'.

And so The Blowfly has found that the shoulder of Tony Abbott has been an interesting place to be during the course of this week.

Tony is out for his morning run along the beach. You had to get up early to catch him and it is not all plain sailing .There is the gentle glow of sweat on his shoulder and you find it hard to cling to him with your crappy little feet.

As he runs adorned in his infamous 'budgie-smugglers' you notice that he unwittingly draws attention to himself because .......(how do I put this nicely?......especially in a family blog)..........well .........his equipment keeps bobbing up and down.Seriously......and .......substantially!

As he runs you tap into his thoughts.

"Wonderful morning this morning............I'll bet Kevin is still in bed....... or more than likely meeting with his mandarins trying to work out how to hose down the 'insulation scandal' or the stuff-up we haven't heard about yet..........but I'm out here being healthy and getting my body in order for when I'm Prime Minister.........or when Malcolm appoints me as his Ambassador to the US.......(he chuckles to himself)...........Jesus, I feel good..........I haven't felt this fit since just before I joined the priesthood.........(he sees a nubile young woman in a bikini ahead)........ God, not a bad piece of crumpet......reminds me of why I left the priesthood.........(he averts his glance as she gets closer, but she does not reciprocate and her glance moves to his budgie-smugglers and you notice her pupils dilate and glaze over).............(He smiles proudly to himself about his remaining masculinity)"

You make a snap decision because you want to know what is going on in her mind.

You jump from his shoulder to hers. It takes a few seconds to get into position and settle down so you can read her thoughts but they do come......and when they do come you can hardly believe your little fly-brain.

She looks over her shoulder at him as he leaves her behind.

"Wasn't that Tony Abbott, the Opposition leader?........he's better hung than I thought......he's enormous!...........no wonder he wears those 'budgie-smugglers'.......why does his wife allow him to wear them?.........I find them quite confronting........and he looked at me too...........I think he must like me............(she thinks a few lewd thoughts)........maybe I could seduce him during one of my early morning walks?.........no, maybe I should restrain myself like they are trying to teach me at school...... God, I hope I can pass my Year 10........maybe I should be doing my homework rather than walking along a beach perving on Opposition leaders..............maybe I could play a joke on him next time?...........I could wear a burqa!.........I wonder would he look at me then?........ he would find me confronting!............hmmmm!........not a bad trick to play..........."

The Blowfly's brain is working overtime at the possibility that Abbott's body might be attractive to under-age schoolgirls.

The Blowfly wonders as to whether this constitutes an 'understandable community concern'.

The words of Goldsmith enter your brain. "The true use of speech is not so much to express our wants as to conceal them."
