bye bye ruddy


I'm not usually one for politics. My general opinion is that as long as the Nazi Party or the Reds don't get too frisky, we'll be just fine. Whether it's a squibby middle-aged man or a squibby middle-aged woman, I really don't think a change in Labor Leader is going revolutionise Australia's cultural landscape.


That said, having our first female PM is a historic step. Girl Power! Just another baby step towards the Fall of Man (I can picture a dystopian, post-apocolyptic future where Earth is ruled by an icy Monster-Queen, with men as powerless sperm-producing drones forced to watch the thousands of Sex and the City movie sequels being made until the end of time...)

In closing, I say farewell to you K-Rudd. Your lack of emotion, which you finally showed us in your parting speech today, was your ultimate downfall. If only you'd shed a few more tears during your term as PM. This just re-affirms how fickle politics are.
It's not about policy - we live in a society dominated by people who read TV Week, The Herald Sun  and New Idea.

If only Rudd has adopted an African baby or married a supermodel, then maybe we would've had him round for a bit longer.
