Midnight Oil

Dear Luke
 
Spot on.  Perhaps we get a hint of what Peter Garrett's bringing to cabinet, when we see Question Time.  Whenever I see photos, he's always looking attentive and interested, while those around him frequently look bored, are talking amongst themselves, or are making fun of the person speaking.  He's up against a "No Man's Land" of arrogance and vicious short-term interest, in a time of incredible tumult, and right after the "conservative" John Howard and Co. trashed the country and its institutions for over a decade.  It's opportunistic and devious to suggest, as has St Brown of Tasmania, that PG has simply sold out.
