Rats in the ranks Liberal Party-style

I'm really looking forward to tonight's ABC1 Four Corners episode on John Howard's end.
I foresee the amusing spectacle of Downer, Abbott, Hockey, and other Liberal Party luminaries, all vowing that they are truly intelligent politicians in tune with Australian voters, who just happened to be led by an old, stubborn man in November 2007.
This is going to be good for a belly laugh, because Hansard and newspaper archives clearly show that this baying mob of arrogant, right-wing bullies eagerly helped turn into law every one of the former PM's biased and misinformed notions of what Australian society should be.
This mob must really think we came down in the last shower, if they believe that they can distance themselves from their previous actions by a sly knife job on their former leader.
'Specially as the Liberals are now saying that they will resist any reform of their most oppressive acts and regulations.
