It just doesn't work that way, they are two completely different political systems. Also he is from Perth so that explains eveything.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan >>Why do we even bring it up as a news story?<< Because in this weary world, there are still a few things you don't expect to read about. Chair-sniffing is one of them. Actually, it is also newsworthy because it was done as an insulting "joke" by a public official, and he had denied it for a long time.

Originally Posted By dshyates This last paragraph made me feel better about the whole thing.

Sort of like an inappropriate and immature frat boy joke. And not some chair sniffing perv. I don't know why that makes me feel better. But it does. I should reiterate immature and inappropriate

Originally Posted By DlandDug Why this is a news story is beyond me. And to be absoulutely accurate, the title should read "Australian Liberal Admits Sniffing Female's Chair." There, that make anyone feel better? I thought not...
