How honest would you call someone

who told you they were Liberal but in actual fact were Conservative?
PM Howard is trying to stain Opposition leader Rudd as a dishonest man who has no sense of judgement. PM Howard boasts he is the most conservative PM in Australia's history but he gets himself elected as a Liberal politician. Liberal used to be about the values of people like Senator Peter Baume, Fred Chaney, Wal Fife, Andrew Peacock, Ian McFee among so many others. They were liberal and so they were in the Liberal Party which was a party for liberal people. It was not a party for socialists or conservatives or environmentalists or farmers or trade unionists. It was a political party for liberals.
But instead of starting his own party and calling it the Conservatives, the cunning little rodent has taken over the Liberal Party. He keeps the name Liberal because that has a nice warm and fuzzy image in the mind of the electorate. And this bloke has the hide to deride other people as dishonest? In the bush there used to be Butcher's Farewells for people like that: they'd shove a leg of lamb up the backside of the rogue and sool the dogs onto him. It's time the Battlers' Friend was given a Butcher's Farewell.
