America has a " weird democracy", according to Christopher Pyne ,Manager of Government Business , House of Representatives .
In yet another profound statement , the Coalition's most voluble talking head , Christopher "The Fixer " Pyne , at long last has made it clear that the Yanks are a weird mob . By inference, we salt of the earth Australians have a healthy, sane, democratic system , the envy of the rest of the world .
This thoughtful , diplomatic statement about a great and powerful ally by Pyne was made as the Senate voting system was being given the chop in a marathon session which ran for 40 days and 40 nights , during which use was made of a noisy Monty Python fart , a colonoscopy took place in most unhygienic surrounds, Nick Xenophon ran about parliament in monkey pyjamas and an honorary Wiggle had his black skivvy torn off him and was debagged by an ALP posse , causing many shocked kinders who regularly watch parliament to wet their beds.

They are keen to invite the gals back to the US Embassy for a Cuban night of rum and Coca -Cola

It was further claimed in the extensive, learned but rowdy debate that the unholy alliance over senate voting between the Greens and the Coalition the Tories would end up being converted , conservative Tasmanian Senator Eric Abetz coming into the chamber wearing a hemp suit, thongs, singing Kumbaya . This hurtful comment and frightening apparition was struck from Hansard and the Tassie spectre driven out of the chamber by a passing exorcist .
Across several hostile borders , in balmy Queensland , where some Ag Force members and pot bellied rednecks , convinced of their divine right to clear fell the state and deny kinky Greenies from hugging useless trees, were threatening to bring down the ALP government, with the help of a few pollies who had obviously fallen out of trees onto their heads during childhood .
In the Queensland parliament , the high level of debate was clear yet again when the former Attorney-General in the felled Liberal National Party Campbell Newman Government , now Shadow Police Minister , Jarrod Bleijie , not thought to be related to chook feeding Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen , wore an albino rat , above , on his shoulder.
