for no reason at all, a repost

No, really. No reason at all for this...

wow.

Wouldn't have thought Howard would ever, ever be sorry about anything, ever?

Prime Minister John Howard says he is sorry about the interest rate rise.


Feel free to nominate your own favourite in the annals of "things John Howard has refused to apologise for".

I'm waiting for "I'm sorry the Australian people didn't recognise my brilliance by re-electing me". I really hope he cries. That would make my heart sing.
