BREAKING NEWS!!

From Eric Dondero:

Late Friday, Libertarian Republican received the news that our longtime international contributing editor James Fryar, has been nominated for a Senate seat in Queensland. This is the northeast province of Australia. The capitol of Queensland is Brisbane.

From Jim:

The Liberal Democratic Party has nominated me as Senate candidate for Queensland in the forthcoming election to be held on the 21st of August.

Gillard has panicked and decided that rather than try to fix the mess she and Rudd have left the nation in, her best option is to go to the polls now before her reputation starts to really stink with voters. Three weeks ago she was put in power by the unions and claimed that she would be the fixer and sort out the problems which she blamed on Rudd, even though she had clearly been involved in every decision the government had made.

The last straw for her was the details of Rudds political knifing being leaked to the media. She has to have the election now, while she is only on the nose, instead of waiting until she is putrefying.

Jim is an oil rig worker. He is a member of the Australian Libertarian Society.
