on children overboard
This letter was emailed to The Australian on 17th
August, and refers to an editorial about John Howard's apparent lies about the
'children overboard' incident prior to the last election, and the revelations of
a senior public servant that Howard was told the truth three days before the
election. Although critical of Howard, the editorial refers to those opposed to
the Iraqi War, including many letter writers and readers of the Australian, as
the 'chattering class' and the 'moral middle class' indicating a certain
contempt for its own readers.

This letter was sent to The Australian on 28th
July 2004, commenting on the debacle of the letters b. o. b. written on a paper
'sick' bag on an United Air Lines flight to the U.S. causing the plane to
return to Australia, because presumably terrorists will leave a message saying
B. O. B. meaning "Bomb on Board" if they wish to blow up a plane.

Something's Fishy in the State of Canberra
John Howard's insistence of absolutely no
knowledge at all about the AWB kickback scandal, reminds me of a joke the late
Bobby Limb told on Adelaide TV some years ago.
