Rhythmic- that wasn't a bad one there.

Yes. I understand that that're reverse discrimination. How would they know whether or not someone is heterosexual?

Could be? The way I see things, Kevin Rudd was just saying that women and men CAN go their own ways and yet still be married. Janette is often portrayed as someone who is always by the side of John Howard and she is more than just a 'first lady'. On the other hand, you rarely see Therase...

Nick Minchin, Stott Despoja, Peter Garrett, John Hewson......have I missed anyone? Back to the topic of Rein's business and the Motor Inn. I think John Howard's attack backfired a little (by pointing out Rein's business) by making the public become more aware of the cons of Workchoices.

Rudd's wife to sell $170m empire So Ms Rein is done with her business? In my opinion, she and Kevin deserve thumbs up for admitting that there was some mistreatment of workers and for apoligizing. This is the part that I found most interesting from the article. I can tell you that this...

The business is run by his wife, not him.

That was what I meant by "other reasons". You've got it covered.

Whose approach? In other words, Peter Debnam was John Howard's scapegoat. He was punished by voters, for some reason, for supporting John Howard's workplace laws. There were also other reasons for Peter Debnam's downfall as well.

The interest rates scare campaign was just absurd because at times, they kept on pointing out the high interest rates of 10-15 years ago when it has very little relevance today. These days, Howard-supporters basically use that ONE argument to suggest why Labor won't be good at handling the...

At least the Rudds are trying to correct themselves. Don't you love an honest, self-correcting man? Let's take a trip down memory lane.

I don't think that Rudd would win based on those results if elections were held today. Yes, he's got a lead but whether he becomes PM or not depends on the number of marginal Liberal seats that he steals. Rudd needs about 15 of them which happens to be a very big number. Remember Mark...

The news title should say "Failed politician has come back" (with a different mask on this time). I don't think she'll win.

Musk- I wouldn't be surprised if John Howard beats up a taxi driver and a cameraman if he loses the next election.:p I'm glad that Kevin Rudd does speak out and admits his mistakes. His wife is even trying to compensate those workers for their past.

You're right frog12896- there are some people who have mood changes and perhaps to them, if not most people, economic growth is not everything. If John Howard loses his seat and/or retires, I wonder who could replace him as the Liberal party's leader. Peter Costello? Alexander Downer?

I think John Howard is doing well. He's putting up a storng challenge against the rising Kevin Rudd. He knows that if elections were to be held today, he'd lose but the election is probably around 6 months away-maybe more or maybe less. You do need to be a bit deceitful and outsmarty to last...

Yes but he was locked up for 5 years for 'supporting' terrorism rather than carrying out a terrorist act. So please explain to me why the ringleader of the Bali bombers (who in fact CARRIED OUT the attacks) only got 2 years? Isn't there something wrong there?

Britney Spears- I don't mean to be rude but if you have something long and argumentative to say, at least use proper grammar and structure your sentences the correct way. Let's keep it simple. He was labelled as a 'suspected terrorist', not a 'terrorist'. He was left there for 5 years without...

Moore has another go at Howard http://au.news.yahoo.com/070522/2/13j6m.html Ad hominem.

I was about to say something similar myself- the weather guy knows his stuff on climate change. Are there any celebrity Liberal Party members?
