Imagine what would have happened if Clinton or Bush had 'done a Howard' and put the White House in mothballs so the First Lady could live near her ultra-fashionable New York hair stylist!
All hell would have broken loose and righly so!
But Aussies are far more laid back and a slow to anger than Americans over minor irritations but only up to a point.
And Howard and the Libs overshot that point by a country mile and paid dearly for their insolence of office!
And serve the arrogant blighters right if they got the sack!
