Nothing will save us from gullibility and greedy self-interest
`Most times, despite the thick and the avaricious and those who feel it’s just all beyond them, we get it right as a nation.
Not this time. This time we’ve really buggered things. A politically immoral man who, by any civilised measure, disqualified himself from public life, has been given a pat on the back and even more power. This time the people’s will has got it dreadfully wrong. [..]
I thought we had more brains, more self-respect. I was wrong in thinking enough voters “just might” see through the confidence trickery of John Howard, master illusionist and toad of a human being.’
