So, How many is it now, Mr Howard .. are you counting?
I am.
Bit inconvenient to have TWO Aussie soldiers die in the same month .. almost at the same time interest rates are set to rise .. and you held off an election hoping for an "act of god" to "save" you from months/years of continuous, negative polling. So much for the Howard/Bush style democracy. Are you worried now, Mr. Howard?
You chortle about the "me too" attitude of Kevin Rudd, while ignoring - as you do - the awkward fact that by your badly considered MEE TOOO policies and attitude toward and with the peculiar policies of the Washington USA administration; have led us - and the ADF - into a very peculiar and disastrous encounter with .. what, exactly?
[always remembering that the British a LONG TIME AGO,WHO TOOK OVER India and environs, sort of had to pull out .. and the Russians (with all their 'might' at that time ) had a crack at Afghanistan .. but had to pull out ..]
Please explain.

I would, at this point, like to know what Michael Jeffery has to say about all this. He is, as far as i understand it - the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces in Australia ..
.. but guess that we'll have to wait for the "memoirs" ..
From Vung Tau riding Chinooks to the dust at Nui Dat,
I'd been in and out of choppers now for months.
But we made our tents a home. V.B. and pinups on the lockers,
And an Asian orange sunset through the scrub.
And can you tell me, doctor, why I still can't get to sleep?
And night time's just a jungle dark and a barking M-16?
And what's this rash that comes and goes, can you tell me what it means?
God help me, I was only nineteen.

Wait a minute, why are you asking an idiot to explain something to you?
Let me explain it to you. Life is like a can of mixed nuts, the big ones work their way to the top.
If your country is like mine you haven't had any good voting choices for years. Our systems do not allow good choices. Just the rich with their own self interests and a sales pitch to get you to vote for them.
Billy B .. "your" country is not like "mine". I live in, have been brought up in, Australia. The political structures are completely different. We DO have - not yet destroyed - trustworthy voting choices.
wombat .. have never been where that song is .. missed the lottery by a few months.
