    Welcome to John Howard's Redneck Wonderland

    It looks like a lot of university students won't be able to afford to go to uni with the rise in HECS staying. It looks like our miniscule, inconsequential number of troops in Iraq will be staying put. It looks like refugees will still be treated like terrorists, or dogs. It looks like it's still un-Australian to be un-American. And it looks like Howard got away with his deliberate misleading of the people for another three years (I do admit however that misleading the public is an art to politicians. Though in this, Howard is the Da Vinci of deception).

    Nevertheless, I don't see any point in getting worked up about it. It's over. The tribe has spoken, or whatever. It still scares me that people can vote for someone like that, but it's happened, and probably couldn't happen any other way given the state of this country, and the rest of the world and the fact that Mark Latham hasn't lead the Labour Party long enough to earn complete voter confidence.


    Well America, you can count on the unwavering support of this country's government in the next country you decide to 'liberate'. :

    Wait, I just saw on Yahoo!'s AP article that only 32% of the vote has been counted. How can he be declared a winner already unless they're looking at some misplaced Florida ballots...

      The report you read must have been out of date. I just looked at Yahoo and it's reporting Howard's victory.

              I wish I could leave the country. I still have my overpriced university course to get through first.

                    You were having an election?

                    Why didn't you say so?
                    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                      Elections are terribly expensive. Is this Howards third term?

                        It is his fourth term.

                              How many terms is Howard allowed, and how many before he gets made honorary President-for-life?
