Julia Gillard is an atheist, a socialist and an appeaser of radical Muslims. You have literally no clue what you’re talking about.

This is at least 3 years old, and Howard and Costello made the comments, not the current PM.

I wish we had an American president.

If you can just hold out another 24 months, we will.

Palingenesis: from the Concise English Dictionary: “a new birth; reincarnation, a second creation, regeneration, unmodified inheritance of ancestral character, the new formation of a rock by re-fusion.”

Gillard is an awful lefty who is trying to pretend she is a centrist - pardon the pun but she doesn’t have the balls to say anything of the sort.

She is a joke!

Hmm...I recall seeing this bit in an email a long time ago, but it was attributed to a different Australian PM. I call bull (although I do love the tone of it.

Yeah, it's a fake. The former PM said something like this. However, Americans, most of whom couldn't find Australia on a map and think the Ozzies are all Crocodile Dundees, would be amazed to discover just how looney Left and PC the place can be.

I could never go back to being a dumbed-down American slug again. FR has forever changed me on that score.

Yep, it's good to be Freep. What is known cannot be unknown.

Yeah, all the ex-Brit country’s have a tendency to go left and become squishy at times....the day to turn the other way is coming.
