Botrous- Yor preferences go to whoever you choose, unless you follow a 'How to vote' card, in which case the Greensa very rarely do preference deals with the libs 8)

I'm all for having a discussion but picking a fight isn't particularly intelligent or interesting.

What you're saying is that because all politicans lie, it doesn't matter that Howard did too? If you can't see the intrinsic flaws in that reasoning, you're a lost cause. Maybe you'll change your mind when one of the people Howard's lying has "pissed off" detonates a bomb in your capital city?
The jury is out on that one... But I'd like to know what you based that on? Have you got any idea what they've done with the economy? Do me a favour and give me some examples of this refined economic management you're attributing to the Liberals?
apollo said:The Iraqi's were better off before we invaded. Hence they were better of under a fascist dictatorship. Not because a fascist dictatorship is better than democracy, we all know what's better there. But what it took to change from a dictatorship to a democracy has fucked any hope of democracy! That's the bit your little idealistic retort ignores, and the bit which flaws it. You've gotta look at the whole situation - history, opinions, requirements, consequences, etc... Not just the concepts/ideologies involved.
Now another question, how can we ever install a democracy there if they didn't get a choice in it?
