Australia Surrenders


Never in a million years, did I ever think I would see the rough and rowdy crowd of Australia wave the white flag because of a band of desert munchkins.


Australia, you elected a surrender monkey as your leader.


Australia, hang your head in shame. We're sorry to have known you.




Australian Troops Home From Iraq in 2008


SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -
Australia's new leader said Friday that he would pull his country's combat troops out of Iraq by mid-2008 - making good on an election promise that is likely to disappoint the U.S. government.
Labor Party leader Kevin Rudd swept to power at elections last Saturday that ended more than 11 years of conservative rule under John Howard, who had strong personal ties with President Bush and was one of America's few staunch allies in Iraq.
"The combat force in Iraq we would have home by around about the middle of next year," Prime Minister-elect Rudd told a radio station in the southern city of Melbourne.
