Nelson discovers infant equality but ignores the obvious tag line

It's hard to take a bloke seriously when his idea of tonsured elegance runs to a limp ferret prone on the pate.
Brendan Nelson made it even harder on Friday when he fronted the cameras to support non-means testing of the $5,000 baby bonus and repeatedly told us that "all babies are [created] equal".
Didn't he stop to think that in front of thousands of tellies people would be roaring with laughter and chanting back at him; "but some parents are more equal than others".
The poor man obviously forgot that during high school Animal Farm was required reading for the tail-end of baby boomer generation.
