Fear and Fabrication

Has John Howard really been Australia's Prime Minister for only a decade?

So many lies, so little time! The Howard government's reputation for good "fiscal management" is just another of the PM’s distorted claims to fame.

Our nation's foreign debt has never been bigger, Australians are personally all in hock to creditors, the hidden unemployment rate makes a mockery of the government's official figures (where one hour a week is considered “employment”), and the accounting methods used to proclaim the PM's economic success are fraudulent.

John Howard has given us the nation's most deceptive, dishonest, unscrupulous, and idealogically driven government in history. His ministers are uniformly incompetant: machine men and women, gutless, heartless.

Tragically, and to our nation's blistering shame, there IS no recognisable opposition party in the domestic political arena.

And so we remain mired in this, the Lying Rodent's decade of fear and fabrication.

And we are all guilty accomplices in his cruel, small-minded charade.

    I saw, or heard, on TV last night the shit Alan Jones was broadcasting in Sydney the week before the Cronulla riot. It was talk about whacking Middle Eastern faces with rifle butts, shoot one scare them all, bringing the army out onto the street, and rubbish like that. It was like the sort of shit the Nazis used to come up with about the Jews.

    I think that sums up where Australia is after ten years of our 70 year old PM Howard. And for sure things are only going to get uglier.

    A decade of lies, lies, and LIES! His long and "succesful" reign only proves what a pack of ignorant, cringing, snivelling, cowardly, selfish mongrels Aussies really are!

    I cannot but help wonder if perhaps our electoral system is as suspect as that in the USA? However in America voting is not compulsory like it is here. Are Australians really so facile, so easily duped, so bereft of shame and moral standing?

    John Howard and his incompetant ministers enjoy touting "Australian values" and upholding our "way of life", but by their own example - lying, cheating, dissembling, defrauding, slandering, and joining in a illegal war - their "values" can only be shunned by anyone claiming to be a civiised human being.
