You heard it here first, folks

We have just received confirmation - the official APEC conference costume will be the design predicted by the Cap Ideas crew. Intrepid gonzo reporters at the Big Stink Guide have managed to smuggle out this snapshot of Howard from deep behind the right wing trenches-


It may look a little slap-dash but John has been very busy - what with rushing the new NT Indigenous Intervention laws through Parliament & all. & what the costume lacks in fine tailoring it makes up for in the strength of its symbolism. Nobody could argue that it isn't a perfect representation of a government that insisted the new laws be exempt from the Racial Discrimination Act.

EXEMPT.

sheesh.

kinda like if Mr Sheen bred with Casper the Ghost.

You know what - by electing Liberal governments for 11 years running, the Aussie public might be displaying devious cunning. The longer that Downer, Ruddock, Abbott, Coonan, etc. spend in Parliament, the less time they have for pissing in the gene pool.

Just a thought.
