The Big Loser Speaks
John Howard : proud recipient of treasured NeoCon-approved crystal salad bowl
John Howard gleefully accepts a big fat NeoCon pay cheque for forcing Australia into adding some international legitimacy to the Iraq War, against the will of the vast majority of Australians, and finally speaks to his people...in the United States :
'I'm Absolutely Shameless And You're The Only Friends I Have Left, Please Pay Me $50,000'
Unfortunately for the Liberals, and conservatives (we'll list them as separate to the "we're with you Mr Rudd" Liberal Party because it seems to make the conservatives happy) who were hoping the Big Loser would light their way forward with some much needed illumination, and inspiration, Howard is still flogging the same load of old wank that lost him the election.
American NeoCons like to reward their international lickspittles with 'tours' of US 'think tanks'. Of course Howard got a hero's welcome at the American Enterprise Institute yesterday. Why wouldn't he? The American war industries that fund so many of these 'think tanks' have seen profits soar majestically since 9/11, while other American industries have spluttered to a halt and laid off millions of workers.
The AEI loves Howard. He's as hollow and shameless as they are.
Howard did what he was told in Washington in the days after September 11, 2001, and committed Australia to the War On Iraq without consulting his own government, the opposition, or even engaging the Australian people and asking what them what they thought.
Now Howard is getting his blood money.

You probably have noticed that Howard apologists everywhere are wetting their nappies over this. Bolta has become hysterical on his blog and has had to go off his viagra due to a permanent erection.
Expect to see those wacky right wingers whinge and complain about the MSM not taking the speech seriously. Wait for the media bias conspiracy theories to get trotted again as Howard's opinions are pushed into the comics section of the newspapers.
Howard was always going to go over and get 'patted on the head' (as Keating would have said) at Empire HQ.
Wollstonecraft will be a bit of a come down after that.

Of course Andrew Bolt loved the speech. It was comprised of Bolt-ticked 'conservative' talking points...that lost Howard the election. It's typical of Howard to have learned nothing from November's defeat.
I don't know who much the AEI paid Howard for this speech but it's as dull as dirt clods.
Blood money indeed.
I really don't care what your views are you don't go overseas and bad mouth Australia.
His 'Prize' has been described as a salad bowl. So that is his payoff for believing/accepting that 9/11 was done by the '19 Arab crazy conspracy theory" .
History will be very unkind to Johne Winston Howard and his puppets. There are many of the dead [ghosts] from the Middle East awaiting his attendance in due course and they are not virgins.
Mallee.
He might be getting his blood money, but look where he's getting that blood money from!!
By that, I mean: he's completely irrelevant now.
