Rudd's got the guts

When it came to reconciliation, former Australian Prime Minister, John Howard, set a poor example to Australians. He was too concerned with the Iraq conflict. It suited him. U.S. President George Bush called John Howard the “The Man of Steel”. I reckon Howard was full of crap. His tracksuits gave me the shits, and his fake smile didn’t impress either. I’m glad he was unseated in November ‘07 by Maxine McKew – he deserved it and I predicted it. I remember writing of Howard’s demise on Neil Mitchell’s blog on the Herald-Sun website in the lead-up to the ‘07 Federal Election, and there weren’t too many who gave McKew a chance of beating Howard. Huh! Howard will go down in history as a man who missed a golden opportunity with Australia’s indigenous people during his 11 year tenure as prime minister. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd is setting an excellent example that will hopefully lead to improving the lives of aborigines, and the way all Australians interact with one another. I know of two part-aboriginal people who were removed from their mothers in the 50s in New South Wales, and they are looking forward to Prime Minister Rudd’s speech. I dip my lid to you Mr Rudd. You got my vote and I’m glad you’re getting on with the job. The job of treating people like people.

For those interested, here is the text of Australian Prime Minister’s (Australian) history making speech, made in the National Parliament, this AM, 13 February 2008… Full text of Rudd’s sorry speech (Wednesday February 13, 2008) _“Today we honour the Indigenous peoples of this land, the oldest continuing cultures in human history. We reflect on their past mistreatment. We reflect in particular on the mistreatment of those who were Stolen Generations – this blemished chapter in our nation’s history. The time has now come for the nation to turn a new page in Australia’s history by righting the wrongs of the past and so moving forward with confidence to the future. We apologise for the laws and policies of successive Parliaments and governments that have inflicted profound grief, suffering and loss on these our fellow Australians. We apologise especially for the removal of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families, their communities and their country. For the pain, suffering and hurt of these Stolen Generations, their descendants and for their families left behind, we say sorry. To the mothers and the fathers, the brothers and the sisters, for the breaking up of families and communities, we say sorry. And for the indignity and degradation thus inflicted on a proud people and a proud culture, we say sorry. We the Parliament of Australia respectfully request that this apology be received in the spirit in which it is offered as part of the healing of the nation. For the future we take heart; resolving that this new page in the history of our great continent can now be written. We today take this first step by acknowledging the past and laying claim to a future that embraces all Australians. A future where this Parliament resolves that the injustices of the past must never, never happen again. A future where we harness the determination of all Australians, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, to close the gap that lies between us in life expectancy, educational achievement and economic opportunity. A future where we embrace the possibility of new solutions to enduring problems where old approaches have failed. A future based on mutual respect, mutual resolve and mutual responsibility. A future where all Australians, whatever their origins, are truly equal partners, with equal opportunities and with an equal stake in shaping the next chapter in the history of this great country, Australia.”_ ... and yes, I was at the “Sorry Day Gathering” watching the big-screen, live broadcast a a few 1000 others this morning at Elder Park, Adelaide.

Don’t blame the journalist. A sub-editor has obviously not had any family migrate to Australia or back-pack here. / The journalist, in Sydney, sent a perfectly fine piece to be published in the Dutch newspaper, De Volkskrant but now the good Dutch folk may be confused about who replaced Mr Howard at our recent elections. / The sub-heading on page five, of the 31 March edition, freely translated, says: / Premier Hudd does not follow the United States unthinkingly. / Later in the article the correct spelling is kept (Rudd) but the wrong one appears again, towards the end. / Once again, it wasn’t the correspondent’s fault!! / But then again, didn’t the American media get Mr Howard’s name wrong, at one stage?

People at parties, without fail, ask me what made me want to learn to speak Mandarin. They ask but they already know. Unless I have found myself with a different crowd altogether who might flap off at the mouth about how everyone should speak English or , if they’ve read a perceived poignant percentage of internet piss past the gloss of beastly sex they say its globalization, global village, yakety yak. Yeah so our newly anointed PM Kevin Rudd speaks it as he was once a diplomat to the Chinese. Perfect profession for the noncommittal leftist preachers of social everything. But what you should ask me is why do you mention this to party goers in between long island ice tea’s and frivolous flirtations? Why do it if you know the response? Well its true China in my lifetime will be the head cheese dick and superpower (and with their track record we all cant wait for that auspicious moment) but I, without fail, tell these cocktail sipping Tibet sympathizing elitists that I am in the midst of learning Mandarin to simply pick up. They not failing laugh as if I’m kidding. And this is why: Whatever political stance an available female beauty has decided upon it is the language which will win them over. Capitalists automatically conceive you as a rational man of money (if such a personification of that term exists) and the Free Tibet anti American Chomsky dogs have already prepared their support speech and packed your bags to accompany them and fight the good fight (I’m not sure, it seems as if the Tibetan monks are doing a tremendous job in the fighting stakes). These types have you placed in a category of which you sit separated from ‘the usual type’ jerk off guys (who they have done jerking off or being jerked off by) and come the time of the party where the cocktail supplies have run dry of mixers and all that remains after the assault is liqueur of rich vibrant colours like the bush berries Les Hiddens and co. warned you about consuming, these girls will come around. Exhausted with the same old same they will revert to that category of which you still occupy, although being too far drunk yourself to speak English let alone converse with Kevin Rudd, they will be at your thigh innocuously huddled up to you as if an open air winter chill has consumed the room. That is why I have chosen to learn Mandarin. Now…lesson one…
