The twelve members of the Rotary Sun Lakes Club Friendship Exchange team returned from Australia recently following their stay with five Rotary families for about five days each. They were privileged to attend the Parliament's afternoon "Question Work Session".Our Congress is a mild group in comparison to the antics of the Australian Parliament. They called one another names for more than an hour, then smiled and shook hands. Following are the comments we could remember:
You:
- are morally corrupt
- are a defective strain of human nature
- are a genius imbecile
- are as deceitful as a snake
- suck them in like a fish
- all are blood sucking blokes
- are a lump of a man
- only drag the chain
- (apparently the greatest insult) think you are born to be the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister took part. Can you imagine if our president did this?? I can only say this was a very interesting experience More to come later. I was pleased to be a substitute part of the team.
