Where have you been? It is a well-known fact that George Bush was an alcoholic for most of his adult life, before becoming a born-again fundamentalist Christian.

Bush: "I don't remember, I was too drunk"
So, he might say that, or more likely, he would say "God told me to do it".
This is something George Bush actually said:
"God told me to strike at al Qaida and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East."

SO, the current Prime Minister illegally took Australia to war because his mate George Bush believes he was told by God to do so.
I am not trying to convince anyone to vote for Rudd. It is none of my business who anyone else votes for. However it is very, very clear that John Howard should not be the Prime Minister of Australia.
