Put a damper on Howard's junket
I noticed on this morning's news that John Howard was heckled by an anti-war protester while enjoying himself on his $60,000 a day (all expenses paid by the taxpayer)holiday in the US. If the sniveling little worm comes to a town near you, would you please voice your opinion on how you feel about him and the friends he chooses to brown-nose with.

2. He basically snuck out of the country
All I know is that he had lunch with Rumsfeld and went out on a boat with Cheney. When he is finished sucking up to all of his buddies in DC, he will be spending some time in Canada, getting to know their new right wing leader. After that, he is off to Dublin. Some of the few things I do know is that he does not intend discussing the incarceration of David Hicks in Guantanamo Bay and I'm reasonably sure he is not going to mention the Australian Wheat Board scandal, where 300 million dollars in kickbacks were given to Sadam Hussein before the invasion. He will be costing the Australian taxpayer over $60,000 a day. Imagine how many holidays you could have with what it costs for one day of his. He's a sniveling, lying, mean spirited little nerdy rodent.

3. It's a tragedy how so many of the Commenwealth nations slipped o'er...
...to the conservative parties for PM lately.

It's horrible. Makes for more "Coalition Fodder" for Dubya.
