you are right there farmer. I don't know what context the ruddie was speaking - but it is certainly language that should be kept in a thesis or similar.
One has to remember that he is from a diplomatic background and henceforth doesn't actually do much (at least very often).
Maybe Pauline and Kevin should form a new political party - at least that would be entertaining - and I suspect all cultures would laugh at it (at least before they invaded).
Bit sad really - they would probably get a hell of a lot of support.
If they had Rob Oakenshott in with them it wouldn't be too bad though as anyone would get so bored pouring through the press releases that they would give up before finding anything upsetting.
Perhaps they could call the new party 'Independents in One Traditional Statehood' -------'IDIOTS'
