Neo-conservative government falls in Australia.

A red letter day: 24th November 2007.

After 11 1/2 years the Liberal (Neo-con) government has been crushed in the Federal election.

A government skilled in lies and tricks and capturing the racist vote, is gone.

Most satisfying, the Prime MinisterJohn Howard looks to have lost his own seat.
This is the same PM who defended the Cronulla rioters as not being racist.

So ?

This is a set back to neo-con world agenda. Labour will ratify the Kyoto agreement.
This is significant as Australia was Bush's foot in the door to stop Kyoto. When Aus
refused to ratify, China and India refused as well.

The Howard government gave support to Bush's agenda in many other ways.
Stopping International treaties on war crimes etc.

The Howard government was helping Bush to push nuclear energy as a solution to GW.

Howard was Bush's closest ally as his philosophical agenda was the same.
Howard lied to us about WMD and attacked our intelligence people who knew
and said there was no WMD. It turns out he was the worst offender at breaking Oil for food
and was in fact pouring money back to Saddam in bribes.

One time he was about to loose an election. So they got a photo of people in the
water after their refugee boat sank. And they cropped the photo and said "these
people throw their own children overboard", implying he would keep refugees out.

He won that election and built concentration camps of barbed wire for the refugees.
We dont know yet how many people have benn abused in there.

Australian citizens of Asia background who could not prove their legitimacy were deported.
One woman, a legal citizen, injured in a car crash was dumped in a hospice in the Phillipines.

He allowed Australians to be kidnapped and tortured by America and left to rot in Guantanamo for 5 years.

He passed laws allowing employers to rescind overtime, sick pay, and other entitlements.

So those who defend the far right, I have seen your type up close for 11 years.
And I will fight Fascism with every breath I have for as long as I live.

Those in UK who criticise Blair, don't know how good they have had it.

I could list 300 examples. I kept a list for a while but there were too many.
A man who lied and lied and lied is gone.
A day for good people everywhere to celebrate.

Many issues in this vid which may not be know to all.
Pauline was an extreme racist politician. Howard took her policies to get her voters.
Hicks was tortued and left in Guantanamo for 5 years to harness the paranoid votes.

I cant believe the Aussie's have voted for a racist group of people to run their country.

Sad days indeed for the future of Austrailia.

The Howard government is the one voted out after 12 years.

They weren't racist in attitude but used it in devastating clever ways to
get the uninformed people to vote for them.

The new Labour Prime Minister is Kevin Rudd.
Apologies if I was not clear.

Yes I do, just as you do.

It is clear now that you are just trolling. So I wont respond.

Now that is a very interesting answer. Im wondering if you're using the meaning, or the percieved meaning.....hmm...er...erm, i think you're using the percieved meaning.

Clarify the meaning you're using, because i cannot understand why you'd use the real meaning the way you did.

I have already clarified this. The Howard government, notorious for using subtle racism
to get the racist vote, has been voted out after 11.5 years. Of course I am pleased.

I no longer believe you are that mixed up. You are trying to provoke a fight.

pet shop boy -

As previously requested, please post within the rules of the forum and in an adult fashion. You're currently skating on very thin ice, and I won't ask nicely again.

Thank you.
