This Pinko bloggy blog blog thingy is principally concerned with the Miracle of Democracy, whenever and wherever it occurs. It is not politically correct, and usually consists of hugely opinionated diatribes on the various vagaries of the Miracle. Vote early! Vote often! All care taken, no responsibility accepted. A work in progress. The Miracle of Democracy is yours, so enjoy!

"if you want a friend in Washington, get a dog"
Comrades,
Everyone knows that the "postal allowance" for Australian politicians is extremely generous, but the President of the United States is on a real doozy, with the White House routinely sending out about 1.5 million Xmas cards each year.
This year's card features a polaroid of the First Family dressed to the nines at the State Dinner for the PM of Canada back in March; it has all their signatures on the inside, including a paw-print from each of the two Portuguese Water Dogs.
However, the leader of the Australian Labor Party, Bill Shorten, has trumped Obama on that one this year.
The only thing I can't work out is which of the cards has more style and class?
You be the judge.
