Herald Accuses Values Australia of ‘Rhetoric’
Values Australia does not want to pretend any false modesty. It is delighted to have been mentioned by its favourite page in the Sydney Morning Herald – Stay in Touch. We think that most people are probably like George W. (and us) and quickly scan the headlines before flipping over to the back page for something a little less depressing.
Still, Values Australia is not aware of ever having been accused of being rhetorical and is not sure whether that is a criticism or a compliment. Whatever, Values Australia is determined not to let its newfound fame go to its head. (On a side note, if you found your email running slowly yesterday, it was probably caused by Values Australia emailing all its friends.)
As a special celebratory gift to our visitors, we offer this video which we discovered today.
The part of the “Prime Minister” is taken by T Rex, the “Foreign Minister” is played by Ornitholestes and “The Next Prime Minister” is played by Pig.
