Though, to be fair, sucking up to America is a talent many Australian politician share.

Sorry, IS and always has been since he was elected.

I'ts too bad George W Bush wasn't in office when Joh Howard was elected. Otherwise your 'logic' would be flawless.

Is the chaser forum getting dumber?

Perhaps.  Our Prime Minister's first name is "John".  And which what was meant by "he" wasn't specified.

OK, I saw a clip the other day showing Bush setting his KPI's. They were about the reduction in the number of daily car bombs before the Iraq campaign would be successful. His biggest problem was to say, "the number is not zero".

Did anyone see it :? If so, can you post a link :?

It still seems like the joke is on us- especially after the channel Ten late news referred to him as the world's most powerful man.


Haven't you learnt yet Nate - The joke is always on you.

I've often had a good old laugh at Mr Bush's oratory gaffs partially from shock surprise disappointment. I agree with Nate though, the joke is on us.. Only a true masochist could keep laughing at Bushisms. It's painful to experience just how well the American educational system is working. I'm pretty sure this man went to Yale.

I've always thought that Bush makes these gaffes on purpose to detract from real debate.

Ah...Bush is obviously a Machiavellian genius.

Well, his dad bought him his way through school and university, so it doesn't count.

Remember, this is Ausmerica. We suck up to America so much, now John Howard is George Bush's puppet

Wow, where on earth did you draw THAT neverbefore drawn conclusion? Are you a political scientist?

Ausmerica - hahaha that's funny it's like a play on words or something lol no pun intended right??  :roll:

And the way you make it sound as if our ties with America are something new - have you not heard the phrase "All the way with LBJ" - a particularly alarming one, at that.
