Who is more un- Australian?

[RedLegs#5]

An interesting question to ponder. All 3 have turned their backs on the values that we as Australians hold dear.

I think it's un-Australian to screw up a poll.

Spanker.

This is a serious poll...please vote and keep your 'creative' comments to yourself.

Can I vote for option 4? - It's un-Australian to not win anything for 43 years.

Sustained periods of losing is definately un-Australian.

Just curious as to why David Hicks is in the poll?

Last time I checked, he was still getting held by the yanks without a trial. For all we know, he's an innocent Australian who is being unfairly held by the government so it appears they are 'winning' the battle on terror.

Bit harsh to include him IMO.

Pauline is a red head. You can't get more Australian then that

It's a typical British/Scottish trait, gingers are not Australian

 

[Richo83]

Pauline Hanson. A disgrace to Australia.

Where's the option for Vlad and Adrian Anderson who have in less than three years almost ruined our game trying to appeal to the mothers out there...

If they stay in power long enough the Irish will be beating us up, and we wil be complaining the International Rules is too rough!

The man trained in Afghanistan with Mr Bin Laden and was gaurding a Taliban tank, the regime housing Bin Laden, when he was captured by the Northern Alliance.

No he's innocent, but you're right unfairly held.

Technically you're right, but on the other hand they're not even real people

Although Pauline Hanson is a xenophobic scum bag... It pains me to say that racism is a part of this country's culture.

All you have to do is look at Cronulla for evidence.

I hate the term un-Australian. It betrays such a misguided sense of patriotism because no one uses it corretly - Redlegs being a prime example. And when John Howard says of someone who is behaving immorally: "it's un-australian"... well f***ing no s**t. Is it more swedish? Or perhaps it's Mexican to behave in such a way

Would Pauline Hansen's behaviour be excusable in another country? I don't think so. If you want to be really fastidious... her behaviour is actually more compliant to the last 10 years of Australia's political history than not... Our society has strongly bigoted and xenephobic undertones.

It's Very Australian to cheat your way through life.

It's Very Australian to hate the yanks

and sadly

It's still Australian to be a racist

not enough to choose from in my opinion, so you're un-Australian for farrkin up something quite easy to do

Nice one. Have to agree. Very un-Australian to be a 43 year loser!

Pauline Hanson is, unfortunately, very Australian. Hicks is yet to have had a trial.

I have noticed a common theme about these anti Carlton polls, they all seem to be started by supporters of the 43s. Jealousy? Methinks yes

This is a serious thread. It's not about bickering or pointing fingers like a school kid.

Vote or respond sensibly.

Now, it seems carlton seem to be the most un- Australian at the moment. Interesting.

I heard on the news that some scientists from Oxford have discovered that red heads carry what's called the Neanderthal gene

Good post. What's "Australian" depends on who you talk to, your political beliefs etc. It used to be a standard of values and decency but with all this politics, that's gone out the window. I would consider Hanson not a true Australian in the old sense but now she's the norm.
