Sigh. They amend the constitution, raping it beyond repair, endangering the basic human rights of all Americans, and then this is what happens when they invade your privacy under the threat of cancelling regular habeas corpus for an unspecified amount of time? Meanwhile, they arrest people under the Patriot Act that voice the opinion they don't like.

Yeah. Well, *that* was a good idea. I'm sorry to tell you this, ma, but after 3 years of studying your country in college I learned one sad truth: most of your fellow countrymen are complete and utter morons. And the worst idiots reside on Capitol Hill. So if I were you, I'd do what Ben Franklin himself has commanded you to do when dangerous incompetence takes over the government. What even George Washington told you to do. What every great visionary told you to do.

Do what we did back on 11th November 1975. We sacked the Prime Minister.

Quick overview:

On Tuesday November 11th, 1975, the Governor-General of Australia, Sir John Kerr, dismissed Mr Gough Whitlam as Prime Minister and appointed Mr Malcolm Fraser as a caretaker Prime Minister.

The dismissal was the most dramatic event in the history of the Australian federation. For the first time, an unelected vice-regal representative had removed from office a government which commanded a majority in the House of Representatives.

A Double Dissolution election was held on December 13th, 1975, at which the Whitlam Government was soundly defeated.

The dismissal of the Whitlam Labor Government was the culmination of a series of dramatic events which began in October, 1975 with the refusal by the Senate to pass the government's budget bills.


Famous quote on the day of his dismissal:

Ladies and gentlemen, well may we say "God Save the Queen", because nothing will save the Governor-General. The proclamation you have just heard was countersigned Malcolm Fraser, who will go down in history as Kerr's cur.
