Politicians have two urges they feel they must express or lose their positions. One is their personal outrage (real or phony.. and I am not sure which is worse. The real outrage by some prude with an inflated and imflammed sense of propriety or the phony lizard who is pandering to the voters). The other is their need to look like they are actually accomplishing something useful for the public good or face being voted out in the next election. This has made politicians do things that would get normal folks considered for really long sleeve jackets that tie in the back. You have two options and i would urge my friends in Oz to do <b>both</b>. Send in your protests to the above links in the story *and* vote the blackguards *out* if they go for this.
