First, I’d like to congratulate Australia’s Prime Minister John Howard for winning an unprecedented fourth term; even though John Kerry’s sister Diana (at her brother’s direction) worked diligently against him. Well done, Mr. Howard! Despite the Kerry family’s obsessive attempt to unseat the Australian prime minister and overthrow his government (due to PM Howard’s unflinching support of President Bush’s and the US coalition of nations’ Iraq policies) PM Howard has won. The Kerry family has an unswerving history of working with both the enemies of the US and the far-left of other countries. This history began with John Kerry’s clandestine meetings with Communist North Vietnamese leaders during the Viet Nam war. He worked for the communists and against the United States of America. Apparently, Mr. Kerry’s penchant toward weakening (or outright castrating) the United States has not altered, from his early days.
Although the upcoming US presidential election is not completely concomitant with the Australian elections, I have to wonder whether or not it might indicate the beginnings of a trend. The world has become a much smaller place and elections in other US alliance countries may be beginning to have an influence on US elections. It appears that the Kerry family sees it that way. For some time, the leftists (AKA communists and socialists) have been working together, world-wide, to topple the governments of sovereign nations; working towards the establishment of a leftist-run world government. At least the Australian voters didn’t buy the leftist’s subterfuge. The Australians woke up to the attempted leftist takeover and voted accordingly. Considering their indefatigable efforts in Australia, the John Kerry family must take PM Howard’s victory as a loss to them. Could this John Kerry and Kerry family loss in Australia signal a loss for him in the upcoming US presidential election? Let’s look forward to it.
An interesting note to last night’s debate was when Kerry (in response to a question from an ‘undecided voter’) looked directly into the camera and unequivocally stated: “I'm pledging I will not raise taxes. I'm giving a tax cut to the people earning less than $200,000 a year.” Uh-huh. Sure he will…when pigs fly. MSNBC’s Tim Russert and leftist Tom Brokaw were appalled by Kerry’s comment. This was the same type of comment that brought down President George H.W. Bush’s run for a second term when he said “Read my lips. No new taxes”. President Bush 41 was unable to keep that promise and was, subsequently, defeated by Clinton. Tim Russert’s post-debate comments to Chris Matthews were "I never thought I'd see another 'Read my lips, no new taxes,' Chris. Never in my lifetime!" An equally incredulous Brokaw said “…John Kerry is now firmly committed to never raising taxes on anyone who makes less than $200,000, period." Even Kerry’s mainstream media pals are now saying he won’t be able to keep promise. Suffice it to say this was, yet, another Kerry ploy of ‘tell them [the public] anything to win. I’ll sort it out afterwards’.
Will the US voting public be able to see through Mr. Kerry’s pompous pretense and deceit, in the way the Australian voters saw through PM John Howard’s leftist competitor? Will US voters finally realize the truth of the strong and consistent leadership of President George W. Bush in opposition to the ever- vacillating ‘anything to win’ message of John Kerry? I only pray that we in the US are as intelligent as the Australians.

If her exterior is as lovely as her soul, not finding a pic is a good thing.
Yep....Bush will also win by a huge margain...as goes Australia so goes America. ;o)
Well, we can only hope she comes back here to "help" her brother.
Yes, it is disgusting and in their politically tin ear fashion the dim/libs apparently didn't consider that the Aussies might resent her patronizing interference.
ditto
I'm aware of those comments...I was wondering if she was quoted often in the papers, or did she participate in the politcial pundit shows, did she actively campaign for Latham...
Or was she just limited to those initial comments.
Actually, that picture is Perry Kerry, but you get the idea.
Sorry, I mean Peggy Kerry. Need to wake up!
Don't feel bad Rawhide, I'm still trying to figure out how to post a picture. Guess I will just have to keep enjoying someone elses.
sKerry's sister has alot of her brother in her. How arrogant does a person have to be to travel to another country and try to influence an election. I hate it when the press writes about what Europeans feel and want in this American election.....but I'd hate it more to actually see one of them come over here and try to influence our election. I hope we end up sending the left, Europe and sKerry a family a strong message by re-electing President Bush.
I don't know what Howard's win says about Kerry, but it certainly proves that Australia isn't Spain. They aren't about to knuckle under to terrorist threats.
Neither, I think, is the United States.
I do not know why the command did not come out. Here it is again.
Use the < key at the very beginning and the > key the very end of this command.

I hope that makes sense to you?
One of the reasons, that I believe, Bush chose to proceed without France and Germany. Why send our soldiers in with troops from countries that are already "sleeping with the enemy"? American troops were actually safer without French and German help.
but the MSM 'missed' it...
The MSM IGNORED it.
Par for the course with the Kerrys
Ugh. Didn't need that visual!
