have you ever wondered

how it happens that the PM gets his picture in the paper about a sporting story? Veteran journalist Alan Ramsey tells it like it is - "JOHN HOWARD'S office phoned the Canberra press gallery two nights ago. Photographers and TV crews were told to be at The Lodge at 5.30 next morning if they wanted World Cup footage of the Prime Minister in front of his television set.
They arrived just in time to catch Howard whooping it up as the Socceroos scored the penalty that evened the half-time score against Croatia half a world away. They were gone, bundled back outside, by 5.45. Thank you, Prime Minister.
The leaping toad."

I don't know who is more stupid - the voters in PNG described by the woman on the PMV the other day, or the voters in Australia who think the PM loves sport and ergo "must be one of us".
