Ah, the USA. Let’s celebrate their own celebration of ignorance and stupidity. How these people get on television is anyone’s guess. WEE mean, Australia has its own crass and appalling TV journalists, commentators and entertainers (Kyle Sandilands anyone?) but the US really takes the cake in promoting the truly sub-intelligent and moronic to celebrity prominence.

News Ltd, has found some commentators and journalists worse than their own to pick on for once…

‘Serial killer’ for approving camel cull “Launched air strikes against camels” Anchor is serious The Punch: A bit too far?PRIME Minister Kevin Rudd has been labelled a serial killer on US TV for approving the culling of feral camels.Erin Burnett, an anchor on American financial news channel CNBC, launched a verbal attack targetting Rudd following his government’s decision to spend $A19 million to cull feral camels in the outback.

These people are really stupid and so dumb transparent -  you can bet if John Howard had made this decision it wouldn’t have rated a mention.

But their real stupidity is that they have sat and barracked for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq for the last few years and simply cannot see the offensive irony of calling the cull of camels in the outback ‘genocide’.

These people represent a portion of the American establishment that is sick, sick, sick. They are so out of touch with any kind of reality that it really is not worth talking about their outlandish behaviour and hateful, bile filled speech. They are so tired and dull. Let’s just hope they go away.

Well, it seems that there is finally proof emerging that Bush was a complete nut job. Following close on the heels of news that Donald (the other nut job) Rumsfeld would put religious quotes on memos to Georgie about the war in Iraq, it now emerges that the same George W tried to convince the French President of the biblical proportions of the war on terror.

Alternet brings us this article.

The terrifying thing is that this nutter was in control of a nuclear arsenal while he had little control of his own brain. Maybe the US system is sound in that Bush got nowhere near the nuclear trigger – or maybe we all were just lucky and dodged a bullet over the last eight years. Whatever, thank god he’s gone. Let’s hope we never see another like him.

Howard to receive US freedom medal

Samantha Maiden, Online Political Editor | 10:30am JOHN Howard will be awarded the US Presidential Medal of Freedom next week, in one of George W Bush’s final acts as president.

via The Australian, News from Australia’s National Newspaper.

Just how out of touch are these guys? Can’t someone quietly tap them on the shoulder and say, “Hey fellas, it’s all over, you can leave now”? It is astonishing that they keep pretending that the disastrous war that they sent our countries into was not one of the most appalling foreign policy disasters for a generation.

So again WEE will be subjected to another round of back slapping and self-congratulation by Bush, Blair and Howard. They will repeat the lie that the world is safer because of their actions and the mainstream media will again cast no critical eye on their actions – they’ll just quote the press releases that trumpet the great achievements of these diminuitive leaders.

WEE think the ceremony would be the perfect opportunity to round up the ‘three amigos’ and send them to the International Criminal Court to be tried for their war crimes. WEE’ll keep dreaming on that one.

WEE do not look forward to watching another orgy of ineptitude when these three unimaginitave leaders get together to celebrate their contribution to freedom in the world. What all of this demonstrates is just how out of touch George Bush is. Some 80% of the US population wants him to just go away. Perhaps he could just stay on vacation until 20 January?

Still, we may well get our wish that we never hear of George W  Bush again after 20 January. Apparently he is not planning to be a high profile former president. He was barely a high profile serving president given the amount of time he spent on vacation.

And WEE will not forgive him for giving further oxygen to our own former little leader John Howard. At least Howard still hasn’t cottoned on to the fact that being associated with George W Bush is actually not anything to write home about. Little Johnny is so out of touch too that he still thinks Bush is a man of substance and power – as opposed to the lame duck president he has been for about the last 3 years.

Costello denies he’s spineless

September 14, 2008

PETER Costello says he urged John Howard on several occasions to stand down as prime minister, but rejects the suggestion he lacked the guts to challenge for the Liberal leadership.

The former treasurer said he pressed Mr Howard on the issue on a number of occasions but that the former prime minister always had a reason not to hand over the leadership reins.

Costello denies he’s spineless | The Australian.

WEE don’t know about you, but we are heartily sick of hearing about Costello and his failed bid for leadership. WEE are tired of speculating on what might have been and what definitely wasn’t.

So, while you might feel a little sympathy for the man having to put up with John Howard’s antics over 11 years of the previous government, the fact remains that he did put up with them. And that really is the whole point about the spineless thing, isn’t it? He could have done so much to temper Howard and yet it appears he did nothing – apart from give us a 10% GST rather than an 8% GST. Great work Pete.

WEE hope that after his miserable little book is launched he limps out of Parliament and is never seen again. He is not an inspiring person, and he certainly is not a leader – he proved that over 11 years of the Howard government. And he is sadly proving it again in the way he has conducted himself over the last few weeks.

For everyone’s sake Peter, just give it up. You missed your moment. And to listen to you and now your wife tell us all how great it would have been – well that’s just it ‘would have’. It’s over. Go away.
