Did anyone catch the Russian news on SBS today? Hilarious viewing for the Russkies, a bulletein with bare bums, chain wire fences and all.

Putin was magnificent, cool calm and collected, in sharp contrast to Bush, who stumbled around looking for the exit off the stage, referred to Australian troops in Iraq as Austrian, and made a huge faux pas in relation to our oil deposits which we don't have, I think he meant our uranium deposits which we do have, and are in the process of sharing with Russia.

All this while our own little monkey smiled blithely on in his Drize a Bone.

Well yes, I suppose rolling is one way to describe it. I am so fucking glad that I had nothing on my plate that dragged me to Sydney this week though! Nightmare.

Oh definitely! Still, with the climate-change religion in top gear, the imminent end of the earth fast approaching(!), surely a little bit of delicious yellowcake wouldn't hurt anyone?

Very Happy
No, missed it! What time again is Russian news on SBS (Sydney time)?

Haha - I hope my Russian friends had a great laugh watching such comical protests - nudes, etc.....

I wonder if yesterday's stunt with the Aussie TV comedian actors, posing as security for the fake Canadian motorcade delegation, got a highlight on Russian news? They were able to breach some levels of security.......

Very, very stupid stuff - but very newsworthy.

It's understandable for Bush. After all, he was there for the OPEC meeting, not the APEC meeting. Laughing

I forgot that one. Very Happy

He's gone now, with his 700 strong support team. The comedy hour is over.

Sad Why does he have to come back?! Can't you guys keep him? Someone should drive him out to the middle of the Outback, kick him out of the car, and drive away FAST! Laughing

20 January 2009...it's not coming fast enough!

Sorry mate, he's a boomerang! We couldn't possibly have another alien predator disturbing the sensitive ecological balance out there. We'd rather take our chances and have Vlad digging up the uranium it seems Very Happy Perhaps he'll get into a lather and take his shirt off again!

Seriously though, did you know he, (Bush) bought over 20 cars, 700 people and I don't know offhand how many aircraft for it all?

What a disgusting waste of US taxpayers money!

Where's that asteroid, anyway? There's good yellowcake in New Mexico.

Twas nice to see him roll up in an IL-86, an aircraft virtually banned from a lot of airports due to the decibels it cranks out! The local rag had a classic photo of Vlad looking somewhat bemused in front his lectern, while our own poisonous garden dwarf looked like he'd choked on the latest polls ratings.

A complete debacle at the Taxpayers expense...

You guys are the only ones who want him. After all, you elected him twice. Laughing
