G'day,

Question: What are the desirable qualifications for any young man who wishes to become a politician?

Mr Churchill: It is the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year.
And to have the abiltiy afterwards to explain why it didn't happen.

Which of the two candidates has the long-sight of Old Moore and/or the story-telling of Baron Muenchhausen?

Answers please on the back of a 100 dollar bill and send to yours truly.

Bcnu.

Sorry, I cannot answer. The last $ 100 bill I got from the Republicans was taken away by the Democrats.
Sigh

Sorry not to be better informed, Mike from Ireland. I assume "Blur" is Blair, who is Vague?

A little off topic but related.

Across the sea, (or across the border) do you have the same voter apathy that affects the US? (Less that 50% turnout. And thats of those registered)I read an editorial from the Times remarking on it and on how involved the minority is, but no comparrison to other countries.

Maybe if we had an ace politician versus the "packaged commodity types" our politics seems to attract.....
