I propose that we make October 9 a national holiday to commemorate the day when Howard proved his invincibility to the nation and to the world.

We will call it John Howard day.

If the Queen can have her own holiday, I think John Howard, who is a real Australian, and possibly the greatest Australian ever, deserves a national holiday of his own. And furthermore, the holiday would be a tribute to the Australian nation, who understood the threat posed by the ALP and decided to tell it exactly where to shove it's policies.

Australia, I salute you.

I would hate to tell you that most australians hate howard, he got the vote, but he is hated, even he knows it, but he is wearing a huge smile today knowing that even people that hate him picked him, but i wouldnt go as far as a holiday, he still is and always will be a moron, a moron with a great political brain.

Great proposal, maybe you should write a letter to him to take this further

The majority of the Commy squad are mate... (except the smart tasmanian loggers who have now become enlightened with the ''right'' way)

Oh you are a comedian now, huh? That sort of thinking went out in the 1950's idiot!

I vote ALP because they are socially aware, whereas the government is NOT!

If the ALP was ''socially aware'' (as you put it), you would be celebrating a landslide victory to the Lefties today. But they were defeated - and how! Socially aware? No - more like inept.

As for my reference to the Commo's - it didnt go out in the 1950's because they were never outlawed (the vote failed). Im sure the Communist Party that has sat elections in the past wouldnt be too impressed at saying they are not still around - because they are definately alive and well in some of the Labor members.

I was talking about the attitude towards the Commies in the 1950's, not their existance!

The ALP ARE socially aware! That wasn't what decided the election! It was the economy and the lies Howard was telling associated with that. THAT is what prevented the landslide that would have happened otherwise!

So the two topics debated by the Coalition and Labor from day one of the campaign were the economy and Howard's lies. That is all - right? Not education, medicare, health, etc? I must have been in a hole for the past month.

Latham tried to debate those subjects. Howard didn't go along with it because he always went back to the economy. It was one big scare campaign that the voting majority took in like a pack of suckers.

Howard won after seeing the benefit in having a socialist 13 billion dollar spending spree, panderering to the unions and jumping into bed with a bunch of christian loonies that want lesbians burnt and mosques pulled down (but hypocritically preferenced adulterer Ross Cameron).

I don't know about pandering to the unions, Hoss - but the rest of that is right. And Cameron's gone IMHO so that's something!

For the record, I put the FFP below the Coalition on both my ballots!

The union comment was a bit tongue in cheek - I was referring to his support from the forest workers ;)
