Get Your Arses Into Gear, Folks | Election 2004

Being a great big lefty, I’m going to plead to all ausculture.com’s readers to do their damndest to ensure John Howard is swiftly booted from The Lodge after the October 9 election. We’ll be posting a bit here and there regarding the current political goings on, but mostly I imagine we’ll be linking to interesting reading material that other people have written.

After all, I’m no expert when it comes to Australian politics and its internal workings, and I won’t pretend to be. I do know what my own gut instinct tells me about right and wrong, and that gut instinct tells me we have a dishonest, heartless Government in power. Hence it’s no surprise I will be voting for Labor. The Labor party are by no means perfect, but I trust Mark Latham infinitely more than I do John Howard.

So I’ll be linking interesting news stories, funny rants from bloggers, and anything else I think might benefit our Australian readers who have an interest in the outcome of the election. I’m always up for a little bit of banter, so Liberal-voting readers are more than welcome to respond to anything we post that they disagree with.

Should be an interesting few weeks of campaigning, kids.
