You dont seriously think that you can call everyone who didnt vote the way you wanted stupid?
Labour has lacked direction and solid leadership over the last 2 years, so its not suprising that they didnt get that much confidence from the public this election. I dont know if you have actually watched many parliament sessions but latham character now is completley different to how he was before he got into the head position.
To me it sounds like you are basing your views on the journalistic crap that we see. The liberal government has turned australia around from running massive budget defecits slowly so that we are now in surplus. Im not sure if you remember but the australian economy performed very well over the last few years economic instablilty due to various things.
Another thing if labour had been in power they WOULD have supported bush in the iraq campaign, so much of our defence budget spending and also weapons sales is tied with the US, as well as the upcoming free trade agreement with the US (at the time) there is no way Australia would have refused the US support at the time.
typically its the more educated people who vote liberal (even university students, all of the ones i know anyway voted liberal, despite the less favourible policys liberal has in comparison to labour)
ps your a moron have fun voting labour the rest of your life

Mate I woted for Howard the first time.As for the defecit.. not hard when you halve funding to our health system,and start taxing East Timor of 2 billion dollars to say the least..If so called educated people like uni students are voting to keep a gov in power that has nearly doubled HEX fees then I am deeply disturbed!
As for backing the US,as usual ppl seem to think bowing down unconditionally to the US will help us in all areas,good luck!
There isnt a black and white line when backing the US, like All or nothing..it could have been handled alot better,we could have still kept our relationship without being seen as one of the three that have led the way in invading a country that really was no threat...as for me voting Labour all my life.
I will always maintain a broad and open view to all parties to ensure my vote is educated and just. On top of this I have studued politics, sociology and psychology if you want me to break out of lamens terms and show YOU how uneducated YOUR opinion is, PM me for an essay...
Everybody is intitled to their opinion, that is what we have,my first post was a reaction to hearing that Howard won and It,and it shocked me..but dont get me wrong, I deeply believe our country has made a very bad mistake not only internally but in the view of the rest of the world. We havent been able to stop some seriously bad policies HEAD ON! and show the rest of the world that we arnt just a mini-me version of the US..As I said,I cant wait to see you all in the trenches,but to be honest I hope i am wrong.
