More on John Howard, the Australian PM and the Bush lap dog...

It is royally annoying to read reports like http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/6988552.stm of John Howard, the Australian Prime Minister, and how he emulates the policy and style of Bush Jr, and how unpopular he is now, who also faces complete annihilation in the election by year end.

I hope he gets annihilated. At least Bush would not get the slap of the face since there won't be another election for him anymore. For Howard, the stakes are high. If Dem wins in US, Howard will be marginalized (or at least not as warmly received). If his party fails in the election at year end, he loses. So, he'd better hoped and prayed that some GOP wins in US, and his party doesn't lose, then he'll prolong this about-face.

If bin Laden is smart, he shouldn't stage another attack in US. Otherwise, it'll push US further into the same agenda, making it less likely for al Qaeda to gain foothold in the befuddled Middle Eastern countries.
