On a Serious Note Normally I leave the politics up to the crew at 1115.org, however, to address Conky's comments regarding the re-election of conservatives in Australia. Yes, we have to suffer through another 3 years decreased Medicare bulk billing, lower education spending and panic. Worst, however, is that Australians have been duped by politicians who have been caught in their own lies several times. George Orwell said, "The point is that we are all capable of believing things which we know to be untrue, and then, when we are finally proved wrong, impudently twisting the facts so as to show that we were right. Intellectually, it is possible to carry on this process for an indefinite time: the only check on it is that sooner or later a false belief bumps up against solid reality, usually on a battlefield." This is not a football game where one team lost over another, and we can rah rah over a win or sulk over a loss. In the end of the day, those Australians who voted for Howard will suffer their own ignorance, whether it be 5 or 15 years down the track. For those in America, I hope that anyone thinking of re-electing the current president will reconsider, so that in the future they can call themselves compassionate, honest and intelligent, and still be able to sleep at night.
