Heh*.
It's so weird when you see graffiti and you know exactly what someone was feeling when they wrote it. Not as good as the graf in Carlton that says 'TITS ARE GREAT' and 'SPAGHETTI IS NICE', but still incredibly worthwhile.
p.s. I've heard about four stories of people meeting folk who voted Liberal since Saturday. But surely that's not enough. I mean, it's the majority of Australians. WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY HIDING?
*Thanks Mik , you spunk. Those totally look like balls at the top of your page, by the way.

i love how that guy is just mesmerised by the pic.
in addition i didn't think howards win would affect this much but i couldn't get my little johhny up and going last night. the chick i was with was understanding though :)
I met a Liberal voter the other night. Apparently Latho "isn't ready" to run the economy. Here are some more responses.
Consistently lying - "They all do that"
Kids overboard - "That was all the press' work"
Health and Education stripped of funding - "We have a strong economy"
Sale of Telstra - "Better for all of us"
And so on....
political graf at its best. so best.
All the Libs must be hiding in churches, or deep in outer suburbia, clutching onto their precious homes and incomprehensible amounts of personal debt.
On another note, I'm starting to believe that this is actually JH's blog: http://johnhoward.blogspot.com/ it makes so much sense to me now! I wonder if Latho will ever get such fame and fortune as his own blog. I know I'd read it. Hmm.
Here you go, Mik.

"...i'm very good @ research" - classic.
ah, the truth that can be found in the writing on the wall. Spaghetti is nice.
And tits are great...
A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is Politics?"
Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I
am the head of the family, so call me 'The Prime Minister'.
Your mother administers the money, so we'll call her 'the Government'. We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you 'the People'. The nanny, we will consider her to be 'the Working Class'. And your baby brother, we will call him 'the Future'. Now think about that and see if it makes sense."
So the little boy goes off to bed, thinking about what Dad
has said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother
crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the
baby has dirtied his nappy.
So the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his
mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy says to his father,
"Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now."
The father says, "Good, son, tell me, in your own words,
what you think politics is all about."
The little boy replies, "The Prime Minister is screwing the
Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored, and the Future is in deep shit.

Hello Ms Fits,
Love your site. I stole this pic and pasted it on my own site (attributed to you of course). Hope you don't mind. Asking you after the deed has been done of course, but if you mind, I will remove it.
As for your question as to where all the Lib voters are. The other day, my radio show requested that we get amongst the plebs, I mean interview the public, and I encountered only Lib supporters. I was kind of astounded. I had thought there was a bigger backlash to Iraq (and millions of other issues) in the general, uneducated, ill-informed, masses (if you will) but I was wrong. The majority of Australians cared only about their interest rates (as we know, not determined by the Govt) and were scared of terrorists (of course not questioning why we would be a bigger target now). What can you do? Our fellow bloggers, Darp etc, claim that now is not the time to be despondent and give up. I'm sure I'll understand their point soon, but right now, I just hate everyone, have nothing but absolute contempt for my fellow citizen, and am thinking that even Dafhur (sp?) might be a better place to live right now. At least they're honest about fucking everyone like a pack of Canterbury Bulldogs on a footy trip, with an unlimited amount of Roh Hypnol. Sigh.
Oops. I was supposed to ask you if the graff is yours? Jeremy (Melbourne Lefty) wants to know.
Yes, Mik, I am in fact the real John Howard. And you all thought I was an 18 year old girl...
Actually, what pisses me off about the pic, is that there isnt more of it! I mean, I nearly saw a riot in Newtown - well, not so much a riot, but a bunch of clearly Socialist Dulliance kids (all men, crazy eh!) jumping up & down on a Malcolm Turn-bull poster. Thats the revolution boys, lets get into it. All on a backstreet in Newtown. Yep.
If creative graffiti is considered risque & civil disobediance-like, then fuck it, I'm up for some. Unfortunately it is in non-Liberal territory (yes, it exists somewhere) so the converted will have a gaffaw & will go back to their bongs.
Maybe our 3 days of mourning is over by now. Heh, hope so.
More graffiti. Hmmm, maybe I'll start something. Oh bugger it, think I'll go back to bed
Carry on
There's a few of them (Lib voters) on the Vogue Australia forum, and some Family First supporters too.
LOVE the pic...
would try to import it to my own blog but I can't work out how.
Can we make t-shirts of it now? let's face it - they have a three year shelf-life :(

I am a Liberal voter and proud of it. We are all hiding as Expats/Diplomats in overseas postings. Come and find us.
On the off chance that I do catch one of your Aussie Liberal Party Voters hiding out here in Los Angeles what should I do with them?
oh no, we're not in LA. That would be much too obvious. Try looking somewhere else....maybe a Pacific Island Nation, or the Maldives are quite nice this time of year.
Pass me another G&T, Jeffrey.
just so you know - this wall is in Newtown, Sydney. i think we should declare it an independent free state.
