yeah I heard the same, and that is something I think that people should really understand and think about it.
It's going to make for good tidings in the future when he gets in. Seeing him in front of the audience on the news brought a smile to my face. I know exactly how hard it is to do business with Chinese/some asian nations and understanding their language shows a lot of respect in their culture

Good on Kevin Rudd getting to where he is.
I'm not a Labor voter (and was Liberal until 'recently') but I remember watching him on 'Sunrise' (I think it was) and thinking to myself "God help the Liberals if that guy ever becomes leader of that party".
Now I know that there have been a lot of things that have led to the current situation, but I still think he's done well for himself.
It's a shame that I'm unable to vote in this next election, apparently, though!

Classic pictures yesterday of Rudd speaking in Mandarin to a delegation including many Chinese, looking like a statesman. Howard looked so uncomfortable with the situation!!!
The media spin from this could hurt him more even though Bush has done everything he can to try and give him a leg up!!!
Interesting days.

Outside of FPS games and Hummers I don't get it. Music, Jerry Springer, the bible belt, NASA, basketball, Walt Disney, food, iPods, vacuous celebrity worship, etc are all military?

t doesn't surprise.
The labor party is communist anyway so of course Rudd would speak their lingo. He is probably a chinese spy ploting now to sell Australia to China in a huge takeover.
Obviousaly he wasn't talking about china's continued abuse of human rights or how they put poison paint on childrens toys and sold poison blankets to the world.

Who cares about that really?
Isnt it all about the economy. The Howard government has had 12 years to do something about Chinese Human Rights but instead tried to allign us economically with them.
Kevin Rudd will have a far greater success in doing this because he understands them culturally

I would be more than happy for Rudd to go and live in China permamantly.
He is kidding if he thinks that being able to speak their language is going to make our relationship with China better. They will still treat him as a white person and try and rip him off.
It is the way that they have done it for centuries. We are amateurs at negotiating compared to the asian countries.

Is being ripped off by the Chinese any different to be used and ripped off by the USA????

Expain how the USA is ripping us off?
They saved us in WW@ and we would expect them to again if necessary.
I couldn't imagine China helping us to defeat an invading army? They would be too busy digging up our minerals.
