JOE HOCKEY

*CAPTAIN_AUSTRALIA* 27 March 2007 1 minute read

Is he the Messiah?

Or is he a greasy used-car salesman?
In any case, would you buy a used-car
from this man?

Would you accept salvation from him?
Should we call the exorcist?

Just what is John Howard's strange
fascination with this creature?
Is he the reincarnation of Rasputin?

Is he really Jesus in drag?
Should we do the crucifixion properly
this time, and do his mates as well?

Has he been circumcised?
Who wants to check?

Does he find Alex Downer fetching in fishnet?

Why hasn't he answered any of these
questions?
If he has nothing to hide, why is he
scared to let us all know?

Pithy Quote

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded. Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed. Everybody knows the war is over. Everybody knows the good guys lost. Everybody knows the fight was fixed: the poor stay poor, the rich get rich. That's how it goes. Everybody knows. Everybody knows that the boat is leaking. Everybody knows the captain lied. Everybody got this broken feeling like their father or their dog just died. Everybody talking to their pockets. Everybody wants a box of chocolates and long stem rose. Everybody knows. Everybody knows that you love me, baby. Everybody knows that you really do. Everybody knows that you've been faithful, give or take a night or two. Everybody knows you've been discreet, but there were so many people you just had to meet without your clothes. And everybody knows. And everybody knows it's now or never. Everybody knows that it's me or you. And everybody knows that you live forever when you've done a line or two. Everybody knows the deal is rotten: Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton for you ribbons and bows. And everybody knows.
