“Conservative Prime Minister John Howard suffered a humiliating defeat Saturday at the hands of the left-leaning opposition, whose leader has promised to immediately sign the Kyoto Protocol on global warming.”
Why the stunning loss? A key reason was Howard’s “head in the sand dust” response to the country’s brutal once-in-a-thousand year drought. As the UK’s Independent reported in April:
… few scientists dispute the part played by climate change, which is making Australia hotter and drier….. Until a few months ago, Mr Howard and his ministers pooh-poohed the climate-change doomsayers.
Sweet!! It couldn't happen to a more deserving lower life form - well - except for Bush, Cheney, Michael Crichton, Rush Limbaugh, Senator Jim Inhofe......Come to think of it there are a bunch of them deserving of the same.
