Assange doesn't interest me one iota, but I am amused to see the critisism of the USA.

Bearing in mind that there are some, quite a few actually, that advocate that we become a republic and hold the USA up as a model for us.

As one reader wrote in The Saturday Age, August 18, 2012:

"Australian citizens around the world can now
take heart. Ecuador will protect your rights."

Phillip s well depends, see I read about it in the press.
Still if it suits you to sling off at spelling while showing just maybe you do not know as much as others do?
Banjo! how do you link this with that?
If you can tell me please do.
Carbon tax? thanks to the ALP for leading once again, nothing to do with the subject but one cheap shot deserves another

And that reader of the Age, hits the nail on the head with that comment Lexi.

Belly,
I see our embassy staff in UK have been in touch with Assange recently and he does not want further assistance. I wonder why some people think Assange should get more assistance and/or support than any other citizen who finds himself in trouble in another country.

It also amusses me that with posters here saying that the US administration is so corrupt and untrustworthy and their agencies can act as a law unto themselves, without checks and balances. If this is proven and common knowledge, why would anyone advocate the US as a model should we become a republic. Maybe our governance system is not so bad after all. Must remember this critisism of the US system when next there is discussion about a republic.
