Dear Editor,
Golly gosh, what a lot of tosh! Former Australian Labor PM Kevin “The Dud” Rudd is petitioning for a Royal Commission into News Corp Ltd, meaning the Herald Sun, Geelong Advertiser, Daily Telegraph and Courier Mail, GCB and Mercury, The Australian, etc. will crumble and fade away? Because they are “…a cancer on democracy…” (especially when News Corp has many times urged Aussies to vote Labor at election times)?
Labor’s Rudd, who has described himself as a “Christian” and a “family man,” suffered as severe a loss of memory over his calling (when PM) the Red Chinese, Australia’s largest trading partners, “rat f……s” as his memory loss surrounding his visit to New York’s “Scores” “gentlemen’s club” (code for an upmarket strip joint) when he was in the US on Aussie-taxpayer-funded official business.
I ask because about a year ago, Rudd berated former serving-in-frontline-battle Aussie SAS Digger Officer – Coalition Cabinet Minister Andrew Hastie as being “post-pubescent” and dealing in “neo-McCarthyism” for calling out the Rudd-labeled Red Chinese “rat f……s’” looming military threat to world peace!
Who is Rudd to doubt Hastie’s judgement on military threats to world peace, because was it not Kevin Rudd who (in the Australian Federal Parliament) said there was empirical evidence that Saddam Hussein had WMD?
I don’t know what a self-confessed, drunk-out-of-his-mind Kevin “The Dud” Rudd “scored” at Scores in New York; however, according to him, at least the Red Chinese really do indeed “score” very well with…rats!
Yours,
