Reply #29: it sounds like something Irwin would have said about anyone

[JI7]

i'm basing this on the way Irwin usually spoke. i can easily imagine if he were to meet Bill Clinton he would say something similar.

it's just so full of exaggeration which is how he often spoke, but also one of the reasons people loved to watch him. i mean, even those supportive of John Howard would most likely not call him "the greatest leader in the world".

i haven't read any quotes from him concerning Bush and Kerry. it seems people use the JH quotes to claim he had an opinion on American Politics. personally, i don't think he was all that informed about politics outside of his own personal interest which was animals, conservation, etc.
