protest against Australia's possible involvement in a war on Iraq.
An Adelaide rally and march against war was told it had to change popular

founder Ian Maddocks said.
"You're going to have to join in that idiot harvest that is gathered
together under commercial talkback radio.
The only flash of controversy in the Victorian campaign so far was born

donated to Janice Munt because the other guy is a ----". She later said the
missing word was "runt".
