I know this is not entirely election based but it does concern Mr. Obama, who i saw was in Australia this week driving the poor woman leader of Oz into a frenzy (she appeared unable to keep her hands off him, the poor old biddy).

Anyways i read that he said that the US has no stronger or better ally thatn Australia? What happened to us?? I am sure he has said the same thing about the UK? Now i know words come easy to politicians and he has to keep Oz sweet to have as a base for when we go to war with China ......

But in the meantime, the next Arab country we go to war with, will Australia be the number one ally??

Notice how i keep saying we here??

I know its all politics but i had to raise a quizzical eyebrow at this!! A bit like Roger Moore in the old James Bond movies

P.S. I hasten to add that i say this with no animosity towards Oz, which is a great country and should be on board.....with us - theres that "we" again.....
