Gratuitous photo posting to frighten the horses and little children who won't eat their greens.



DECLARATION OF WAR: THE PRIME MINISTER ROBERT MENZIES:

"Fellow Australians,
It is my melancholy duty to inform you officially that in consequence of a persistence by Germany and her invasion of Poland, Great Britain has declared war upon her and that, as a result, Australia is also at war."

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Australia, the great camp follower.

DECLARATION OF WAR: THE PRIME MINISTER JOHN WINSTON HOWARD:

"Fellow Australians,
It is my melancholy duty to inform you officially that in consequence of a persistence by President Bush, America has declared war upon just about everyone, especially the French, and that, as a result, Australia is also at war. All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia, but do have a nice day."
