  1. Wonder if this will turn off his supporters enough to keep Howard in power?
    The headline could read “Rudd Taken Down by a Wad of Earwax”.
    Howard would be thrilled to be preferred over an ear wax eater.

  2. I think that is the guy who started the Aussi “out back steakhouse” chain…we got a short glimpse of the secret behind the special Waramaroo “steak sauce”.

  3. BTWL I understabd when a parliamentary session ends in the Oz parliament they engage in a traditional Aussi “booger flinging” ritual.

  4. My dog does that – sort of. At least she has the good sense to just smell her toes after scratching at her ears…

  5. Just some politician getting his daily intake of ear wax. You get enough of that stuff in your mouth and eventually you have your own personally made all natural mouth guard.

  6. In the era of the Internet and YouTube, no-one’s safe anymore.
    God, I really wouldn’t want to be a politician now…

  7. You know, you’re right rob c. I know alot of politicians who try to feed us crap thats alot worse than ear wax and it also come from a different part of the body.

  8. Wax on
    Wax off

    That’s WWII warbird parlance in reference to a “BUFF” “B”ig “U”gly “F”lying “F”ucker.
    And that’s what he put in his mouth.

  9. In the same vein, you can find a clip on the Net of Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi digging deep for a booger and then eating it when he thinks no one is watching. Right.

  10. at least it is just wax.
    Garth has to eat crap and Steffi is dining on a lotta crow these days.

  11. Please, come on! We sneer at the left for trivializing every little thing while ignoring the big things, and then we all jump on this? Let’s try to be a little consistent.. after all the photoshopped nonsense we’ve seen over the last few years, I find it hard to put any faith in anything that’s posted on YouTube – I’ll laugh at it, sure, but to make my political decisions based on it?
    I support Howard, but let’s do it the realm of ideas and not of ridicule.

  12. Ok, we should focus on his bigger gaffs —– like back peddling on Kyoto;
    [The announcement follows a gaffe yesterday by environment spokesman Peter Garrett who later had to issue a humiliating clarification of Labor’s greenhouse gas policy.
    The backdown came after a Labor crisis meeting, which followed a day of sustained assault by John Howard and senior ministers on Mr Garrett’s approach to a new post-Kyoto climate accord.
    Mr Garrett started the day by committing a Labor government to signing a new global agreement on greenhouse gas emissions targets that might not include developing nations, such as China and India.
    Last night, Mr Garrett issued a statement, reversing his position.
    The Opposition Leader had initially endorsed Mr Garrett’s statement, drawing fire from senior government ministers, who accused Labor of destroying Australia’s position on climate change and threatening jobs.] The Australian
