There must be religious context for all this jingoism? Both this UN
petulance and the abrogation of section 68 of the constitution, lets call
out the troops and in each case he uses an unohly trinity of ministers? A
triumvirate?
Perhaps this is just a glimmer of hope for the mere mortals of this land.
Is Little Johnny afraid of making a decision on his own? Does he have to
have the support of his Cohort, and thus is afraid to lead? Or is it just
part of the Pauline Gospel on his road to Dimboola, and he needs; one to
read, one to write and another to to flush the crapper?

Did you hear about the Roman Catholic who asked his priest to call on him.
"What's the matter, my son?"
"Father," he said, "I'm dying."
"Oh, my word! I'm so sorry."
"That's okay, Father, I've come to terms with it. But I want to ask you
something. I want you to help me to convert to Protestantism."
"Whatever for?" asked the priest.
"Well, isn't it better that one of them dies instead of one of us?" ANON
