To: John Howard
Re: Aha, now I understand!

John Howard: "My charge is that the consequences of the policy you [Opposition Leader, Kevin Rudd] are advocating would be to destabilise Iraq and threaten the security interests of this country through a defeat of the United States in Iraq," he said.

Ah, now I see: Your American friends have stabilised Iraq. And you fear that the constant stream of deadly attacks by insurgents will be disrupted by a pullout.

Why didn't you say so, before.

You really do make yourself look more and more foolish. And not just yourself.

Sincerely...
