I should be doing other work, but I just have to post, because today is – hopefully – a very important day.<\/p>\nI should be doing other work, but I just have to post, because today is – hopefully – a very important day.<\/p>\n
Today is federal election day in Australia and I’m warming the champagne in anticipation that today is finally the day we vote the bastards out. Fingers crossed.<\/p>\n
Of course, another lot of bastards will get in but they won’t be as awful, racist or conservative as this current lot.<\/p>\n
It’s been a very long 11 years. I’ve hated this government for so long, it’s almost too amazing to contemplate that they might finally be out of our lives. That I might not have to listen to them on the news any more. Just think, I was only 23 when the Liberals first came to power.<\/p>\n
By the way, for those non-Aussies reading, the Liberal party is actually extremely right wing and not liberal at all. In the same way that the US Republicans are all for creating a conservative religious oligarchic non-republic. Some political parties seem to take an ironic tone when it comes to names.<\/p>\n
I also wanted to post about the election just so I could use the photo above. Someone has messed with the poster of Liberal (conservative) candidate Tracy Marsh and made us all realise that yes, she really does look a lot like Stifler’s Mum from American Pie.<\/p>\n
MILF? Perhaps. MILVO (Mum I’d Like To Vote Out)? Definitely!<\/p>\n
Here’s a video of a flash mob who went around Melbourne yesterday singing “Vote The Bastards Out” in public places:<\/p>\n
