Al Gore for imprinting on my brain one of the funniest (and apt) images about our dear Prime Minister's sycophantic - or is it
psychofantic - increasingly isolated and altogether weird relationship with the American president. (I mean, they are going to
Vietnam this week to discuss Iraq?) “Right now, Australia
and the United States are the
'Bonnie and Clyde' of the global community on the climate crisis," Gore told
Andrew Denton on
Enough Rope in September. "If Bonnie goes straight and reforms, then Clyde is out there isolated and would feel a lot of pressure to change. If Australia changed its policy, it would put enormous pressure on the US to change."
Back in Australia to recruit volunteers for a new campaign, Gore reminded us of the quote at his
press conference. Wonder how Mr. Howard looks in a beret?
