John Howard is a hypocritical turd
PM outraged by Afghan Christian convert case
Prime Minister John Howard says he will be personally protesting against the possible execution of an Afghan man for converting to Christianity.
The man is on trial in Afghanistan for converting from Islam to Christianity and Mr Howard says he will be writing to President Hamid Karzai to express his unhappiness.
Mr Howard has told Southern Cross radio the case is appalling.
"When I saw the report about this, I felt sick - literally," he said.
"It's an appalling thing, that we are fighting, we are putting the lives of Australian soldiers on the line and this sort of thing is allowed, I mean this is outrageous."
This from the same man whose Immigration Department tells queers that they're not eligble for refugee status because they won't be persecuted if they return to their home countries and "just hide their sexuality".
But look out! One person gets in trouble for finding god and suddenly Junior is all letter writing for the revolution. Personally I think we need a bit less god-finding and a bit more same-sex lovin' in this world. But that could just be me.
And what's with the "we're fighting" line? Um, hello? Didn't we INVADE their country? Maybe you should have thought of that, genius.
