Iemma squibs it on political donations

Morris Iemma managed to look sincere yesterday as he solemnly averred that there was no point in banning developers from making political donations in New South Wales unless the ban was imposed nationally.
"It is impossible to look at campaign caps, or banning a specific type of donor, unless laws are consistent at a national level," he said.
Now run that by me again. There is no point in stopping a source of corruption here unless it is stopped everywhere?
Oh, Morrie - just how simple do you think we are mate! A child could point out the flaw in that argument.
