Democrats: the al-Qaeda party of choice... Howard: the politician of no choice
Canberra: Prime Minister John Howard has turned over a new leaf this previous week, criticising an American politician for the first time in his decade long stint in power.
Caught between the influx of mixed emotions commonly referred to as the US presidential race, Howard has proven determined that, "if I hear a policy being advocated that is contrarty to Australia's interests I will criticise it."
Thus, with numerous complex arguements being scattered across the US political scene, Howard has found a gross generalisation to grab and hold on to, namely, "If I was running al-Qaeda in Iraq I would put a circle around March 2008 and pray as many times as possible for a victory, not only for Obama, but also for the Democrats."
One senior Bush official retorted unofficially in jest, "If I were fighting a war in Iraq, I would pray that Howard were running the organisation, because then we'd finally have a victory. At least we'd know where to find him!"
Many believe this outbust is derived in the deterioration of Bush's relationship with Howard, Whitehouse spokesperson Tony Snow claiming, George W Bush "hasn't talked to Prime Minister Howard since January 9th."
Reinforcing this line of speculation, a recently leaked piece of Channel 9 footage shows the uncut version of Howard's attack on Obama, "If I was running al-Qaeda in Iraq I would put a circle around March 2008 and pray as many times as possible for a victory, not only for Obama, but also for the Democrats. Why don't you call me George?"
n Australia, Political pundits are working overtime trying to read the other possible motivations behind such an outburst. Many believe this is a political ploy to distract election year voters from environmental issues and re-align their focus on the traditional Liberal safehouse of public security.
Many view this motivation with skepticism, despite being reminded of children overboard, tampa, the war in Iraq and the War on Terror proving blockbuster election winners for Howard in the past.
Those on the Labor backbench who are still enthralled in this "conspiracry theory" are working overtime to apply a sense of terror and fear to core Labor issues. Policies such as, 'The axis IR reforms of evil', 'cyclone Osama Bin Laden', 'the drought that's killed the Australian way of life' and the 'terrorists get cheap exports too Free Trade Agreement' have all been met with luke warm receptions.
Kevin Rudd has labelled far more serious allegations against the Prime Minister's "reckless act", "To accuse the Democratic Party of the US of being al-Qaeda's party of choice... is a most serious charge."
Howard has denied casting a broad smear net over "those Democractic hippies", however, his well publicised quote where he requests victory not only for Obama, "but also for the Democrats" proves that Howard has issues with not only his memory, but also lying through his teeth.
Of course mediated.com.au would never make such a claim about lying, it was only focusing on the comment about memory loss.

Was in an angry mood this morning and really needed to vent
