There was a comment on the interest rates apology from someone at Crikey:
Media coverage of Prime Minister John Howard saying “sorry” for interest rate rises was seized upon by the Opposition yesterday. More fool them. The PM later sprung his trap, revealing that when he said "sorry", it wasn't actually an apology!
At some point, the ALP needs to start taking the piss out of Howard using clips of The Fonz from Happy Days doing his "Surr-ruuh... Suh-ruuh..." thing. Happy Days was always meant to be a comedy, but, Howard's beyond a joke these days and his weasel-words have become a self-parody.
