The polls so far seem to show that no one gives a toss about Rudd’s dawn service debacle. Perhaps they remember that while our little digger (the nearest he’ll get to earning that moniker is planting some forget-me-nots under Jeanette’s orders) may come out with holier than thou bollocks like..

My view is that Anzac Day is a very sacred day and I don’t think that anybody should be into trying to give it any kind of political spin.

..his government also requested that a bloody great big road be built at Gallipoli that has made the site unrecognisable.

..you cannot rule out the possibility in doing work on any battlefield site of turning up bones

So why risk the desecration it if it’s so bloody sacred John? My mistake, its Anzac “Day” that’s sacred and not Anzacs. Because the “Day” allows the puffed up little turd do a crap Churchill impression, but Anzacs’ bone fragments under the tarmac don’t. The “Day” gives the government an excuse to put on a multi-million dollar sound and light extravaganza at Anzac Cove, silent graves don’t.

And lest we forget the former Minister for Veterans Affairs Dana Vaile’s subsequent idea of turning the Mornington Peninsula into a Gallipoli theme park.

If this lot was the Polish government, Auschwitz would have people moving travelators, dry ice smoke coming out of the showerheads at regular intervals, mood music, and tour guides dressed as Nazis.
