The time has come for members of the Labor Party to recognise that Mr. Whitlam was not a hero, but a cause of shame: an irresponsible megalomaniac whose manic propensities are clearly evident in television and video footage of him at critical times in his political career. The parallels with Dr. Bert Evatt are close. The difference is that Dr. Evatt never became Prime Minister so as to enable his manic designs to be perpetrated on his country, as they were on his party, which he kept out of office for twenty years. But Mr. Whitlam did become Prime Minister, and the most unbalanced that Australia has ever had.
1. Keith Moor, “Grassby Crimes Cover-up”, The Herald Sun, 9 May 2005. This article
is an example of objective and high-quality journalism that is unfortunately lacking
in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald, where the journalistic staff are almost
without exception partisan supporters of the Labor Party.
2. For example, Mr. Grassby circulated a document known by him to be false, in which
it was alleged that the murderer of Mr. Mackay was his wife, and not a Mafia hit-man.
3. A detailed analysis of Dr. Cairns was published in National Observer, April 2005,
Issue 64 at pages 52-63.
4. Any residual doubts about Mr. Whitlam’s lack of honesty are dispelled by Sir David
Smith’s account “Setting the Record Straight”, published in National Observer, April
2005, Issue 64, at pages 10-24.
No doubt the labor party and abc will nominate whitlam for sainthood
