Before you go damning our government too much, look to your own. Australia is effectively a patsy for whatever our government decides to do militarily, and is breaking exciting new ground in violating civil liberties of its civilion population.

I guess they all need an overhaul these days.

In "The Seven Year Itch" the waitress says that the woirld would be a better place if everyone took off their clothes. "Just imagine.....no wars". Sounds good to me

I think it was The Seven Year Itch. May have been "Swedish Nymphos A Go Go" though.

I spend every day virtually screaming that at fat, complacent yobs here DzM, I truly do..... if anything Australians are far worse than Americans in regards to complacency and apathy. Except Australians have no real reason to coast on their increasingly fat arses. Just some jumped up little crypto-racist arse-licking piece of Bush-shit for a Prime Miniature and his pack of hateful fear-inspiring beige-suited goimbín men and spooks.

Not an overhaul, DzM, a REvolution, a turning of the Big Wheel, a burn-it-down-and-build-that-House-On-TheHill-we-planned party.

But sadly/gladly/madly/badly, yer nation has a very large global footprint and more media-saturation than any one brain can bear, and all the vapid, downtrodden, underpaid, undereducated, understimulated meat-tube voter-patsies that live here spend more time shaping their world-view based on the latest spiel from the US than they do trying desperately to think fer themselves. But let's digress shall we, this makes me sadder than madder.....

That's the problem... good people like you and Aineen being abused by a junta of criminals and murdering thieves (Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, I'm looking in YOUR direction...).

America needs a NEW revolution, a new Thomas Paine to proclaim the updated v2.0 upgraded Rights of Man, a new Franklin to invent new, socially equitable infrastructural systems (mail etc), a new Washington to lead the hordes of not so quiet and no longer huddled masses, as they march in force on their bloated so-called political masters shiny marble edifices. Shit, don't get me started. Somebody ring that fucking Liberty Bell so loud it splits in half, and TAKE BACK YOUR NATION.

Yes but how many other people will have girlfriends (and boyfriends) in tow and be wearing Pogues Shirts? Thousands I'd imagine.


It was a joke.
