So i fullfiled my civic duty today

[Pudfark]

Being the honorable American, that I am, I will accept the blame....however, in doing so, I can no longer apologize fer Slick....so be it.....I sense the Rugg and Wullie are with me in this selfless endeavor....

Old Pudfark sez: " United we stand...for Slick this fall...it's all about a Happy ending... "

Yeah not to bad except ot lookslike it will be a hung parliment still a few seats to be counted but meh not looking forward to the next few years

in a vain attempt to keep on your original topic.......What happens in the case of a hung parliment, Fatman?

ooops! Just scrolled through the partisan US stupidity and read your post. Sort of messy, huh?

[callmeslick]

Another question, Fatman.....How did the more conservative party come to be called the Liberal party?

you folks are a confusing lot.......

[Daiichidoku]

its easy, slick

seasons reversed in oz

they drive on wrong side of raod

they go north for vacations

oz turds go left, not right, down the bowl


hence conservative = liberal and vice versa down there

[callmeslick]

well, THAT makes sense!


....somehow, I suspect Fatman will have a different explanation, but.....

[fatman]

Well why that is all true i still like to blame the British

One one intersting fact this has brought up is that our GG Ms Bryce has a daughter that is married to a Labour head honcho so if it comes down to the line and she has to decide i see s conflict of interest issue i dont know what happens then maybe the Queen will have to weigh in

[Daiichidoku]

"The Governor General of Australia is appointed by the Queen of Australia on the advice of the Australian Prime Minister"

of course, the GG can dismiss the PM

but the Queen could just dismiss the GG and appoint a new one quickly and have it carry on from there
