Welcome to Gaia! ::

Heard about that, quite glad that guy has gone------- not that I knew a helluva lot about him, but he sounded like some Aussie version of Bush (or one of his neo-con buddies, anyway). WHY AM I ANSWERING THIS THREAD, I ASK YOU. I SHOULD BE WRITING FRENCH. AHHH. Unfortunate that although we have finally rid ourselves of one of them (Howard) another has already sprung up (Monsieur Sarkozy, bien sur). SUCH ARE THE WAYS OF THE WORLD. Sigh. NOW JE RETOURNE A MON COURSEWORK. Bon nuit.

hahaha.. the history of John Howard~
well, i didnt pay much attention to Aust government coz i didnt have to vote.. but i remember hearing some news about some scam about flyers (relating to the election) in Australia.. what was that about?

Oh that? Well it was a really stupid prank pulled by the husbands of two female liberal candidates which attempted to paint Labor as associates with Al Qaeda (Bin Laden Supporters basically). They tried to copy the antics of this television show that had sabatoged the APEC conference earlier this year (Remember the Sydney lockdown?). As you would expect, it flopped miserably and probably made the election defeat much worse.

Anyway, so far it sounds like you guys either didn't know anything about the Howard government (Most Americans have no clue rofl ) or are glad that he's gone for good. Being the case, what do you guys think about the new Prime Minister, this Rudd guy? He can speak Chinese better than any of us can (shock! eek ), is basically an Aussie version of Bl(iar), and was caught picking his ear wax-and EATING IT on live American TV!!! xd

Blair? I thought that was.. Howard's speciality? My English teacher was saying how if Blair was a poodle then Howard was like.. a lapdog.. @__@; The Rudd guy sounds better. At least he's going to sign Kyoto, and withdraw troops from Iraq, and other nice things. : D

Oh I see I see.. xD

OMG the Australia got a government O.O
the kangaroo are gonna be piss when they heard this whee
