Australian Prime-Minister Sends Spam

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the getting-the-word-out dept.

Boricle writes "The Australian Prime Minister has been personally funding the sending of political spam to the members of his electorate. The spam has been sent under contract by his son's company of whom he is 'very proud.' Political Spam is permitted under Australian Spam Legislation."

    He can spam all he wants, he's still a far better leader than anyone from the Labour party. ATM the Labour party is stuffed. They can't decide on anything, they were split almost 50/50 on the free trade agreement with USA. Not to mention that Latham's problems with his pancreas have only been known to be caused by one of two things. Cancer or Alcoholism, he doesn't have cancer so he has most likely been drinking to excess in the past. So we have two choices. Vote for a Prime Minister who has given Australia several years of service to a very good standard and low BS OR we can vote for a fucking drunkard who's party can't agree on anything and whos policies will drive Australias debt even higher. Latham is bullshit. John Howard has shown through example he is very capable of leading this country.

    That fucking arsehole has gone far enough.

    Truth overboard.
    Weapons of mass destruction.
    Camp David is cool.
    No GST ever.

    Who wants to help me run our own anti-Howard election campaign?

    Apparently it's legal to spam people if it's for political purposes!!!

    I've got the actually emailing covered. I just need addresses. Who knows where I can get LOTS of addresses of Australians?
