I agree with you about Aussie wines and they are incredible. I am living in Australia at the moment and the variety is amazing. If only the public knew how much they backed us and how little they get in return...(no free trade agreement yet) Then more people would be visiting Australia and drinking their wine. I have a good feeling that things are about to turn around.

And the great thing about the Aussies is that the local media slandered the prime minister ever step of the way. They hated him for supporting the U.S. and he had the courage to do it anyway, even when the polls were against him.

And you know what makes Australia's support even more noble: The Clinton Administration absolutely screwed the aussies' lamb exports to the U.S. with tariffs and seriously hurt their economy.

Yet they didn't let any of that obscure their moral sense and signed on for Iraq just because it was the right thing to do.

Aussie. Aussie. Aussie. Oi! Oi! Oi!
