Howard can read the thoughts of the aging population and knows how to play them.

Comparing racism and bigotry to simply disliking immigration is ridiculous, and is the very reason the topic has become so taboo. Australian's deserve to have a say as to who comes into their nation, and under what circumstances. Whole area's have been 'taken over' by foregien cultures and people, and while I am not a 'noone in noone out' person necessarily, it is becomming ridiculous. Older Australian's particularly, the people who fought for and built this nation are seeing it sold in front of their eyes. We would not accept an invasion by military force from foriegn nations, but we accept one via immigation. Within 75 years Australia will WELL and truly be an Asian nation. Make no mistake about it, and don't question it, or else you might end up in gaol.
