Benchmark Tories: Barry Haase

Illiberal Party member for Kalgoorlie has clarified what many right wingers have been knocking their handful of neurons together for years to express: the 1967 referendum was a mistake.

"We shouldn't have allowed them the equal rights we gave them in 1967. It's like a re-run of the Garden of Eden story. We tempted them with everything and what happened? The person who had not been consuming alcohol suddenly was allowed it."

Sum and substance, eh Bazza?

"That was wrong, we did nothing to ease people into a drug that has had very deleterious effects both in terms of sexual violence and in terms of health effects. We needed to introduce it to them gradually and train them into it."

What, train them to drink booze like they were chimps? Maybe he's right. All those Illiberal-voting booze sellers could then have applied for good citizen awards.

And besides, we all know that alcohol abuse leading to sexual violence is confined to Aboriginals. Never happens with the white folk.

Haase is just another Illiberal who sounds like he got where he is by selling used cars.

The kind of thinking produced by bottle after bottle of Ten High Whisky -- the preferred whisky of American hobos -- and a string of Kingswood sales to the down and out. Australia should seriously consider some kind of basic intelligence cum humanity test to be given to aspiring politicians.

A simple test with questions like: "Giving Aborigines equal rights made them alcoholics. True or False."

Too many nutters like Haase and Charles have slipped through the net. A net loosened largely by John Howard. Then again, places like Kalgoorlie might forever be unrepresented.
