It may take you minute to figure out who the "characters" are in this Australian news editorial about Geo. Bush's visit to Australia. "Little Johnny" Howard is the Australian Prime Minister. How ugly can Americans become to the rest of the world? This puts up a mirror that doesn't show a pretty picture. Stifling democracy at home is bad. It doesn't seem to come across any better when Bush tries it abroad, either. "Journos" in Australia might try and ask the questions our own journos have self-censored themselves from asking, but will there be an opportunity? Howard cancels democracy for Bush and beyond: Can we stop him? - www.smh.com.au
