What can I say? I'd be a redneck myself if the sun ever shone out here in Washington state.

As it is, I'm kind of a wrinkled prune from the rain.

Which is it, mate?

Hang On!, Australia has a long and amicable military association, With the United States (We went to Vietnam with you!), We went in, As a willing third member of the Coalition and were well prepared to go the distance, However, We're not leaving, Because we can't hack it!....A change of Government, Brought a change of policy and As an independant Nation, We're allowed to exercise that change.

It's true, That our contingent was small and spent alot of time in Southern Iraq, But I can assure you, It has nothing too do with getting "Tired"!

You people just wait, the terrorists will follow them back to Australia, you just wait. Remember, they hate them for their freedom to hold kangaroo boxing matches which are considered to be an abomination in the Quran.

and you as a people have the right to determine your own policy and destiny.I still count Aussies as friends no matter.Americans themselves disagree over Iraq,it can't be surprising that other nations wouldn't also but Australia has a tied history of sorts with America no matter what in the end.

Both of us will always be the blacksheep from England

I dont wish we could leave, I just wish the liberals, and all the other politicians would get out of the military's way in making the decisions about how to conduct war.

there is nothing worse than a politician trying to tell the military how to fight a war.
