He listens, honest!

I had an old Herlad Sun lying around (no, I stole it, sheesh), thought I'd bring out one of the quotes from the Snowy Sale's "Howard LISTENS!!" letters and modify it a little. (Bold italics is mine, struck-through is original.)

Good leader listens and learns.

JOHN Howard's announcement that the Federal Government will not be selling its share in Snowy Hydro be changing its latest policy on asylum seekers is a prime example of what makes him such a good leader.
[...] On issues such as our alliance with the US, managing a strong economy and choice in education, he is immovable, yet in matters of great public concern such as the Snowy privatisation immigration policy, he is flexible and mindful of community concern.
John Howard has successfully combined both conviction and consultation in his leadership.

Pastor Peter Curtis, Werribee

(And from a quick check, that's not pastor Peter Curtis Liberal Member for Lalor is it? Surely you'd want to declare that somewhere when you make a positive comment about the leader of the party you were a candidate for? You dishonest little slug. Lies make baby Jesus cry, pastor.)

Was it him?

Who would be in the church and be a liberal member?

It boggles the mind. Unless of course it was an evangelical church.

"God says being poor is a sign of his displeasure - praise jesus!"

"God says let there not be a separation of church and state, let there be a separation of mosque, temple, synagogue and state."

"Anilingus is also best done with use of an enema to avoid bacteria and other fecal matter."

Thank you Wikipedia, and thank you Gam.

I remember being half drunk at a party and this friend of mine who still had his American accent after 20 years in Oz siddled up to me.

'So HM,' he said. 'You ever been rimmed?'

Taken aback I said 'er no, what is it?' where upon he told me he had been by some hot chick.

'It's the best thing ever,' he said eyes glistening.

He kind of blocked the door a bit so I mumbled an excuse and squeezed past to go get a drink.

I did not return to that room.

Ahh yes, the old oft casually dropped into a conversation "so... you ever been rimmed?" question.

.. or maybe it's "Here comes Mikey Capital on the TMI Train again..."

That took me ages to figure out the meaning of.

Mines rctmciw. Read copiously the manual, crazy irish wanker.

Whoa! Curtis was only a candidate for the seat of Lalor. What is frightening, though, is that this guy, with his very public and extrememly unsavoury opinions, was preferred over Julia Gillard by about 40% of Lalor electors.
