(Part 1) Four Corners - Howard's End

[lexer777]

lol how awkward is that meetin between costello and howard

[Gamblor4]

Everyones worried about the debt, with current predicitions it will reach 18% of GDP before a recovery, which isnt bad considering many OECD nations have already blown that out, Japans debt is already over 100% of GDP...get over, and be thankful you have a job because of tough and unpopular stimulus spending

[AU22IE]

Peter Costello will be the next PM of australia and will get australia out of this mess kevin rudd done

[coughdrop09]

You do realise this 'mess' you allude to was started about six years ago. You know, when Howard was still in and the Libs got all heartless and greedy.

[loki6993]

Funny how you came to that conclusion as the coalition government never ran the country into the biggest deficit ever! and had only been in power less than a year.

[robertfrankin]

What ever Kevin has done, he did it right! We are NOT in recession.

[skjohnson1603]

Yeah, nice call mate. Tell me, how is Costello going to be the next PM when he isn't even going to be in the parliment? DICKHEAD!

[LachoDroogie]

haha for all you howard bashers, look what Krudd has done to our country

enough said!

[treemania]

This quote doesnt apply directly to politics but I guess you could consider it applicable to the Howard Years..."A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within. The essential causes of Rome's decline lay in her people, her morals, her class struggle, her failing trade, her bureaucratic despotism, her stifling taxes, her consuming wars"

[Prod1Kh]

Howard should have left earlier so Australia could completely and totally reject that smug, smarmy bastard Costello in a national vote.

[martyaus2905]

I love how Howard lost his seat the fucker

[gajbox]

A story of how Howard and his cronies lost government, WOW

[gajbox]

you know both Howard and Bush are well known for bullshitting, Bush because of bad voting habits from Florida and Howard because of the children overboard

[crackers95]

Australia went to war over what ??

Liberal turds

[ChukkovProductions]

lol Wilson Tuckey at the banquet

[theganj85]

they must have asked him if he was dating paul keatings ex-girlfriend christine

[theganj85]

time will remember howard better than this, certainly one of the greats

[lapalad]

He forgot to throw some children overboard

[doristhepig]

Or johnnie could open a welfare agency for rich people ,he's good at it ,of course he would be on a workchoices contract .

[uyd]

Well, George Bush will be out soon, maybe he and John Howard could go golfing together.

[martyaus2905]

The two of them can get fucked together

[NewCassandra]

The people of Australia will soon realise how they have been duped by the union hacks and the whole Labor party. This country is now rapidly heading down shit creek, after 11 years of abundance. John Howard will be remembered by history as the greatest PM we have ever had.

[shwell]

And you'll be remember as the most delusional youtuber ever

[0bs3n3]

I shall miss him! Sixty minutes pales in comparison to Four Corners.

[doristhepig]

I will mis him too !!!i need a reason to spit at the TV

[intraglobeny]

JWh- Best PM ever.

[SkagitIMS]

Kevin07 just might give Howard a run for the money!

[AustralianMonarchist]

The media are trying to make the Coalition election loss look bad. The truth is, the Coalition loss wasn't as bad as expected. They lost 22 seats. Compare that to the ALP defeat in 1996, the ALP lost 31 seats.

[bixgal]

But it WAS the first time that a sitting PM lost his seat, since Stanley Bruce in 1929 - not something you can say for 1996.

[shwell]

I agree, perhaps all those ex-ministers should immediatley resign and cause by-elections, let's see how much the electorate loves Coalition.

[sogo9]

True, but it was greedy of howard to keep going

[dvorak18]

Thanks for putting this up! I was hoping to catch it on telly but missed it so thanks again!

[icdelegate]

hope there will be a part 3... and more!

[shazzatpm]

Oooh and at 00:33 it says Harry Jenkins has been Member for Scullin since 1996. Wrong. It was 1986.

[AustralianMonarchist]

Of course Harry Jenkins wasn't elected in 1996, because the ALP didn't gain any seats nationwide at the 1996 federal election!

[shazzatpm]

Cheers for this, I missed the first part when it aired on Monday. :)
