ALP Shadow Minister Peter Garrett, former frontman of Midnight Oil and all round anti-US guy, has supported his party’s endorsement of a new major US military base in Western Australia.
In the greatest headline I’ve ever seen, The Age has used Garrett’s own lyric from the song “US Forces” to describe his support. The headline screams: “US FORCES GET THE NOD“.
The people most able to effect change would be the least willing to do so. Oh these prophetic words….
P.S. The Comic Book Guy presentation of the title. Genius. You. Conno.
