My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

God Bless the English Speaking Peoples

Prime Minister John Howard has won re-election today in Australia. In fact, he may have even expanded his governing majority.

The coverage points to the importance of domestic issues in this election. Which seems to indicate that the Global War on Terror is a given in Australia--that's encouraging. But whatever the case, one of America's most important allies has won a resounding victory today.

In a related note, Afghanis voted today in their first-ever free elections. And though there seems to be some controversy as to the actual execution of the vote (kinda like Chicago), the important thing is THAT IT HAPPENED. In spite of Teresa Heinz Kerry's assertion that the Taliban is running Afghanistan again.

A good day for freedom and liberty.
