So by your reasoning, Singaporeans should still be hauling
rickshaws and sacks of rice? Of all people, I expected better of
you than to say something like that, OM.
Whitlam's a flaming idiot, and if he was any more of an arsehole
he'd collapse in on himself. He was ejected from the PM's office
for good reason, and not just because he pissed Rupert Murdoch off.
Fact is that he never got over the indignity, and still shoots his
mouth off to get it off his chest. As you can see, the incumbent PM
is conducting himself with a lot more dignity than that, so the
rantings of a has-been don't count for much, do they?
