Anderson Quits
Deputy PM John Anderson, described by the media as the Brad Pitt of Australian politics (I guess that means something like starring in crappy movies), has stepped down, intending to retire.
Good luck in the future, and all that...my one question concerns the "photo gallery" we can see at the news.com.au site.
Here's the caption in question:
Photogenic ... Never having had his eyes set on the Prime Minister's office, Mr Anderson was free to put himself in some positions other politicians could never dare.
Here's the pic:
I don't get it. Walking next to a sign for Hannibal is putting yourself in "positions other politicans could never dare"??
My guess is they had to quickly fudge up a photo gallery, and couldn't think of a damn caption.
