mischief makers

The ch 9 News that we got up here this morning was that there could be another rise in interest rates and there was some financial genius spreading propaganda about people's having to cut down on entertainment because living was tough and too expensive. I don't know who is responsible for this but it is clearly inaccurate. Maybe there is a message scrambler over Torres Strait or something but life under PM Howard's Australia is good. He is the battler's friend and he makes sure we are relaxed and comfortable and that interest rates are low and for someone to say we can't go to the movies and we have to walk the dog for entertainment well he is clearly a stooge for the Opposition - not that he would have to try hard to be a stooge as the opposition is full of stooges. So James Packer should tell his news team to stop thise lies that interest rates are going up along with petrol and inflation and the cost of living. Interest rates are going down. It is the media which is lying. I trust PM Howard to always tell the truth. He is the most honourable man after Julius Caesar, thus spake Shakespeare's Maek Anthony. Petrol is going down. Credit card debt is zero. There was no arrangement with Costello. Have faith. Trust the man.
