I am even more outraged that he is lying about Al Qaeda, deceptively exploiting 911 to deceive people, and insulting the memories of the 911 dead in the process. Unless Howard apologizes for his behavior, myself and other patriotic Americans will be less likely to travel to Australia or buy Australian products.

If the guy does win somehow, then there's sure to be a big grudge, and it wouldn't be any fun for you folks down under. Plus the fact that Obama is actually right about the fact that the US should leave Iraq immediately...

I think Howard is more concerned about his own image back home if the US withdraws its troops and cuts its losses. Bush is on his way out. Nothing can hurt him now. Howard has plenty to lose. And I'm sure he remembers all <a href="http://axinar.blogspot.com/2007/02/obama-has-critic-in-australia.html">the Australians who were affected by the past bombings in Bali</a>.

When Clinton was first running for President, John Major, then British PM, ordered a search of Home Office files for dirt on Clinton. When Clinton won, Major was almost persona non grata at the White House for two years. Silly thing to do. I like John Howard, too, Duncan, but I think you’re right on this one.
