Australia, an ally, not a servant

Personally I was quite annoyed to hear that the US Ambassador chose to stick his nose into our business.
But I guess if we don't toe the line, we'll be next...

The US Ambassador, J. Thomas Schieffer, recently warned Mark Latham that there would be "very serious consequences if the Labor leader didn't reverse his announcement that he'd bring Australian troops home by Christmas.


It was a warning, not a threat. Ever think that by "consequences" he meant "more civil uprising" due to less troops to keep peace?

Don't worry, America isn't going to attack Australia if they pull their troops out, that has to be the stupidest political opinion I've ever read on these forums. But we will start sending all of our convicts there.

I think by "very serious consequences" he meant that Mel Gibson would no longer be allowed to make Leathal Weapon sequels. And Fosters beer would be torn from the shelves and replaced by Budsters. Paul Hogan will be publicly paddled. And Nicole Kidman would be forced to walk around the U.S. topless for one year.

Oh, yes, the results shall be harsh, Australia.

We'll cut off your supply of rabbit poison.

I have a question, in Austrailia do they root for Elmer Fudd shouting "kill the ******* rabbit!"

I have a question about the title of this thread. Isn't the common term, "pull your head out"? So, then I have to wonder, why would the ambassador want to pull his head in?

Maybe I'm thinking about it too much.

Don't know the answer to that question, we're to busy trying to cull the massive kangaroo population.

In Australia, "Pull ya head in, mate." is the common term used. We take it to mean, "shut up" or something similar. So if you say something that I don't agree with and I wish to convey my displeasure, I'll tell you to first, "Pull ya head in, mate.", followed up by "Ya bloody *****************
Usually what follows after is a heated bit of mutual name calling and posturing, maybe a few punches, followed by the "Loser" buying the "Winner" a few beers down the pub as you both relate to your mates the fight you had earlier in the day.

You mean civil uprising, worse than what is happening at the current moment, with all the troops already there?

Don't tease. Just make sure it is very graphic.

Wouldn't mind actually seeing the ******* drawn and quartered.

And what is up with this ******** I hear about Australia banning smoking in pubs? They are pubs...not damned health resorts.

Sounds like an episode of Trailer Park Boys. I think Empyre is the one in the front with the headband!

LOL!

Yes, that's exactly what I mean. See, think about it.

Small numbers to make it easier for you.

Let's say there are 100 troops there, 80 are from America, 20 from Australia, and there are many uprisings and riots, the troops are having trouble taking care of them all.

Take away the 20 Aussies, leaves us with 80 troops. Do you think the 80 troops can do a better job at keeping peace than the 100 troops did?

Making sense?

So, one could say that there would be consequences by taking out troops, right? The consequences being more struggle with uprisings. Not everything is a damn threat, you damn drunken, fighting aussies.

If Iraq was full of Beer instead of Oil, and crocs instead of Iraqis, I bet then you'd be all about sending troops in.

Then afterward you oil each other up and break out the oral dams and condoms.

Mark Latham is a dork, he opens his mouth, something comes out, then later he thinks, "oh, is that what I said?"

Most Aussies are in favour of leaving our troops there until the job is done.
