The Croc Hunter said some nice things recently about Australia's courageous PM, John Howard.
Crikey. John Howard is the world's greatest leader, "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin said today as the prime minister visited his reptile park.Posted by Alan at October 2, 2003 11:20 PM"In front of us right now is the greatest leader Australia has ever had and the greatest leader in the world," Mr Irwin told the pro-Howard audience at Australia Zoo, north of Brisbane. He said it was the first time he had been given the opportunity to say how much he dearly loved the prime minister.
While Mr Howard was introduced to some of the animal residents of the zoo, including a giant boa constrictor, Mr Irwin said he hadn't realised the extent of the pre-election plug he was giving Mr Howard.
"That was straight from the heart, I've always believed it," he told reporters. "I've travelled the world, I've been to areas of conflict, I've been to the Sari Club (in Bali) and there I see the prime minister backing it up as a fair dinkum Australian like no other prime minister has ever done for this country."
