Billionaires for Bush have spread their reach to Australia. For the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, demonstrated as billionaire supporters of W. They dressed up in fancy clothes and had signs like, "Blood for Oil" and "It's A Class War And We're Winning". The bald man in the photo below is my friend Tim Phil T. Rich.

The Billionaires are at their best at these sort of events, instead of during the campaign season when the public is forced to confront two candidates completely beholden to the wealthy.

We've always championed our Australian friends' creative efforts and legal struggles. However, we never realized the power they wielded. For in the aftermath of this video, prosecutors negotiated a plea agreement with Mr. Hicks. He'll be back to Australia within 60 days, in order to serve a nine-month sentence.

This result is almost as impressive as the time Yahoo Serious organized a nationwide boycott of South Africa in the 80's, or when Paul Hogan's Crocodile Dundee 2 led to an arms reduction agreement between the United States and Russia. Congratulations go out to Mr. Ilic and company. Now, if only they could decriminalize the Mexican Wave, they'd really be getting somewhere Down Under.
