Chris Pyne

I've been thinking of opinion pieces for this blog quite a bit recently, but it's usually when I'm at a cafe reading a newspaper... but this evening I was watching ABC news, and saw the fawning goody goody brown nose of Chris Pyne leaving the podium behind John Howard after a press conference, looking self-satisfied, as usual. Which rather than inspiring me to make a political comment, drove me to this ad hominem tuning up of the nose. Eeeewww! Is the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Health and Ageing just cursed with the kind of facial features that makes certain people (like me) shudder, or is it that he always seems to be Johnnie's towel boy, and has that annoying private school accent. I don't think its his complicity in degrading Medicare to a 3rd rate health system, I think it's just pure animal repulsion.
