- Kevin Rudd, The Australian, April 8, 2007.
Kevin
Rudd's LIES
"But I still think you've got to level with people...I would never knowingly lie."
- Kevin Rudd (60 Minutes, April 15, 2007)
1. | Rudd lies about being a socialist | The Truth |
"It's
critical that when we say to the Australian people that we want to
construct an alternative vision for Australia, that they know the values
for which we stand. Socialism isn't one of them...I am not a socialist.
I have never been a socialist and I never will be a socialist."
- Kevin Rudd, The Age, December 14, 2006. |
"I
am an old-fashioned Christian socialist."
- Kevin Rudd, Australian Financial Review, February 2003. |
|
2. | Rudd lies about Howard and AWB | The Truth |
"The
documents demonstrate that we have an Australian prime minister who is a
liar and I use the term precisely and intentionally."
- Kevin Rudd, Concerning AWB scandal, March 16, 2006.
|
"There
is no evidence that any of the Prime Minister, the Minister for Foreign
Affairs, the Minister for Trade or the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries
and Forestry were ever informed about, or otherwise acquired knowledge of,
the relevant activities of AWB. Nobody from AWB ever so advised any of
them, and there is no evidence that they acquired this knowledge from any
other source, via DFAT, the Australian intelligence community or
otherwise."
- Cole Report, para 30.241. |
|
3. | Rudd lies about ALP not being anti-religion | The Truth |
"...that
somehow we are anti-religion, is just wrong."
- Kevin Rudd, Sydney Morning Herald, November 7, 2004. |
The
comprehensive Australian National University 2004 Australian election
study shows that the category of voters by religion to identify most
strongly with the ALP rather than with the Coalition was actually the "no
religion" category
30 out of 60 Labor House of Representative members failed to take an oath on the Bible in 2004, compared to only 1 of 87 Only one of 87 Coalition members. "We're the party of the socially progressive secular society and yet we gave some preferences to Family First that helped them get their first senator elected." - Lindsay Tanner, Sunday, November 28, 2004. |
|
4. | Rudd lies about Brian Burke meeting | The Truth |
Kevin Rudd said
he had been staying at the home of fellow Labor MP Graham Edwards and
accepted Mr Edwards� invitation to tag along to the dinner out of
politeness and a sense of obligation.
- The West Australian, March 4, 2007. A spokesman for Mr Rudd said he had only attended the dinner at the invitation of Mr Edwards: �Mr Rudd was unaware that clients of Mr Burke attended the dinner. He did not know they were invited to the dinner to meet him." - The West Australian, March 4, 2007.
|
If Kevin Rudd
didn't know Burke was going to be at the dinner (which is inconceivable
given that he was invited by Burke's friend Graham Edwards!) then why
didn't he just leave when he saw Burke there?
And Rudd has admitted to meeting with Burke on 2 other occasions, so his excuse rings hollow. In any case, an emailed invitation from Mr
Burke dated several days before the dinner contradicts Mr Rudd�s
account. The email makes it clear Mr Rudd was the guest of honour. �Julian
Grill and I would be delighted if you would be our guest at dinner with
Kevin Rudd, the Opposition Spokesperson on Foreign Affairs in the Federal
Parliament at 7pm on Monday August 1st at the Perugino Restaurant Cnr
Murray and Outram Streets in West Perth." Graham Edwards confirmed he had been keen to introduce Mr Rudd to Mr Burke because he was a �bright, young bloke� and it was important he got to know WA and its people: �I was pretty keen to push him (Mr Rudd) through a number of different areas in WA, to get him to know the State and to get people to know him.� ALP leadership was certainly a topic of discussion given that a guest at the dinner told The Weekend Australian that the tone of a speech by Labor frontbencher, senator Mark Bishop, had been "vitriolic" about Labor leadership. Another guest at the dinner said Senator Bishop had warned Mr Rudd about destabilising the then leader. West Australian Labor backbencher Graham Edwards also told the meeting that Mr Rudd would be leader of the Labor Party. Mr Rudd was asked several questions about the leadership, including about his decision to withdraw from a contest against Mr Beazley. The businessman also told The Weekend Australian Mr Rudd's suggestion on Thursday that there was no discussion of the leadership was "bullshit" and guests at the dinner had treated the ban on Mr Burke by former WA premier Geoff Gallop as "a joke". - The Weekend Australian, March 3, 2007. On the morning of the dinner, Mr Rudd told ABC radio in Perth his response to leadership questions was that "of course" he still had a leadership "baton in the backpack". Union heavyweight Kevin Reynolds refers to Mr Rudd�s contact with Mr Burke, despite then premier Geoff Gallop�s ban on ministers talking to Mr Burke: �Geoff dictates that people don�t talk to Brian, well, let me tell you his phone runs hot. I know for a fact that he met with Rudd the other day when he was here. That guy, he�s got...he�s a future leader of this country and he sees that there�s no problem meeting with Brian, talking with Brian.� - ABC�s Stateline, August 3, 2005,
2 days after the Rudd's dinner with Burke. |

5. | Rudd lies about apartment rental | The Truth |
LAURIE OAKES: "Do
you do the same thing?" [as Malcolm Turnbull i.e. renting a
house owned by his wife, when he's in Canberra] KEVIN RUDD: "No, I actually rent - I share an apartment with one of the other members of parliament, so it's rarely tidy by the way, and we've been doing that for some years and prior to that, several years ago, we had a house in Canberra for a couple of years, and before that we were renting, so I've done all sorts of different things in Canberra, as many members of Parliament do." - Sunday, February 25, 2007. |
Kevin Rudd's
office confirmed on March 3, 2007, that he had "done the same thing
as Malcolm Turnbull. His pecuniary interests registered with the
Parliament show that from March 2002 to December 2003, his wife owned a
"Canberra investment property" in Griffith, ACT. He rented this
property from his wife using his taxpayer-funded travel
allowance.
- As reported by Glenn Milne, Herald Sun, March 4, 2007. |
|
6. | Rudd lies about Korean State Dinner | The Truth |
Kevin Rudd was invited to attending a State Dinner at
Government House for the President of the Republic of Korea; instead he
sent along (now disgraced) frontbencher Kelvin Thomson, apparently
excusing himself by saying he would be working through the night shadow
cabinet-making.
- Herald Sun, December 7, 2006. |
That night Kevin Rudd was seen with his wife dining with
colleagues at Portia�s, a popular Canberra Chinese restaurant.

7. | Rudd lies about Iraq invasion | The Truth |
"Let's be clear about Howard's reasons for war. In the legal opinion he tabled last March, the only reason canvassed was to eliminate Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. No humanitarian reason was advanced."- Kevin Rudd, The Australian, February 4, 2004. |
"We�re
talking about a regime that will gouge out the eyes of a child to force a
confession from the child�s parents. This is a regime that will burn a
person�s limbs in order to force a confession or compliance. This is a
regime that in 2000 decreed the crime of criticising it would be punished
by the amputation of tongues. Since Saddam Hussein�s regime came to
power in 1979 he has attacked his neighbours and he�s ruthlessly
oppressed ethnic and religious groups in Iraq - more than one million
people have died in internal conflicts and wars. Some four million Iraqis
have chosen exile. Two hundred thousand have disappeared from his jails
never to be seen again. He has cruelly and cynically manipulated the
United Nations oil-for-food programme. He�s rorted it to buy weapons to
support his designs at the expense of the well-being of his people. Since
the Gulf War the people of Iraq have not only endured a cruel and despotic
regime but they�ve had to suffer economic deprivation, hunger and
sickness. And
we should never forget that economic sanctions imposed have had a
humanitarian cost. That cost has been made worse by Saddam Hussein�s
rorting of the sanctions regime. Those sanctions could have been lifted
years ago if Iraq had complied with the requirements of Security Council
resolutions about disarmament. - John Howard, National Press Club address, March 13, 2003---7 days before the Iraq invasion. |
|
8. | Rudd lies about Iraq invasion lie | The Truth |
Kevin Rudd believes Mr
Howard lied to the Australian people about Saddam having weapons of mass
destruction:
"I can�t recall Mr Howard ever admitting he�s made any mistakes on issues like taking our country to war on a lie." - Kevin Rudd, Interview, March 4, 2007. |
Yet Kevin Rudd also told the
Australian people that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction. He told
parliament that Saddam "has invaded his neighbours, in complete violation
of international law, and he is in possession of weapons of mass destruction, which in the past he
has used against his own people as well as his
neighbours. None of these matters are the subject
of dispute."
- Kevin Rudd, Hansard, September 17, 2002. "There is no debate or dispute as to whether Saddam Hussein possesses weapons of mass destruction. He does." - Kevin Rudd, Lateline, September 24, 2002. Therefore, if, by Kevin's standard, Mr Howard is a liar, then Kevin Rudd is also a liar by his own standard! In any case, the Flood Enquiry into Australian intelligence agencies cleared the government of any wrong-doing, so Rudd's accusation of lying is itself a lie. |
|
9. | Rudd lies about Iraq seeking to buy uranium in Africa | The Truth |
"Mr Howard misled the
Australian people on Iraq's nuclear program when he said in his pre-war
speech to parliament that Iraq had sought to import uranium from Africa."
- Kevin Rudd, The Age, July 7, 2003. |
The independent UK Hutton and
Butler inquires have concluded intelligence on this matter was
'reasonable' and statements that Iraq had sought uranium from Africa were
'well founded' respectively. The Iraq Survey Group (ISG) report stated:
"In mid�May 2003, an ISG team found an Iraqi Embassy document in the Iraqi Intelligence Service (IIS) headquarters related to an offer to sell yellowcake to Iraq. The document reveals that a Ugandan businessman approached the Iraqis with an offer to sell uranium, reportedly from the Congo." The Ugandan 'friend' who wanted to arrange the uranium transfer, also said in the letter that: "...he will do his best to help Iraq and Iraq's regime for Jihad together against our enemy, and he considers supporting the power of Iraq to be his participation which is power for all Muslims, and he feels that his duties are to support and strengthen that power." |
|
10. | Rudd lies about 'policy driven' intelligence analysis | The Truth |
"Can I just
say this - as far as the broad culture of the Australian intelligence
community and the Australian bureaucracy in general this last seven or
eight years, there is a grave danger that we see from our analysts and our
assessment community - I used to work closely with them when I used to be
in DFAT myself - of what is called in the business as policy driven
analysis. That is, you are given a policy, shall we say, objective or a
policy output and by osmosis the intelligence analysts assume that this
has to be the given outcome. As far the Howard Government was concerned, I
assume sometime during the course of 2002 that the penny dropped in ONA
that: "Hey boys, we're off to war, we had better not serve the
Government up something too difficult". Can I prove that? No. But there is a culture at work in bureaucracy. And I fear the intelligence community over these last several years - that there are right and wrong answers to deliver to the Howard Government." - Kevin Rudd, Lateline, February 19, 2004. |
"The inquiry found no
evidence to suggest policy or political influence on assessments on Iraq
WMD"
- The Flood Report, July, 2004. |
|
11. | Rudd lies about 'Brutopia' | The Truth |
"Contemporary British
conservatives such as Michael Oakeshott have starkly warned against a
�brutopia� of unchecked market forces."
- Kevin Rudd, The Monthly, November 2006. |
The term 'Brutopia' originated in the late 1950s in Donald Duck comics, where it was a clear reference, not to market dystopias, but a dystopia lacking markets, i.e. the Soviet Union! | |
12. |
Rudd lies about Hayek | The Truth |
"Hayek
offers no answer to the destructive impact of rampant, unconstrained
capitalism, consumerism and materialism on the family reinforced by the
new industrial relations laws and the new spread of working hours that
make it harder for families to be together, play together, pray together
and, therefore, stay together."
- Kevin Rudd, Sydney Morning Herald, November 9, 2006. |
Rudd has clearly
not even read Hayek.
In fact, Hayek rejected radical libertarianism. In his book 'Constitution of Liberty' he wrote: "[T]hough a few theorists have demanded that the activities of government should be limited to the maintenance of law and order, such a stand cannot be justified by the principle of liberty" (p. 257). He went on to say that: "All modern governments have made provision for the indigent, the unfortunate, and disabled and have concerned themselves with questions of health and the dissemination of knowledge. There is no reason why the volume of these pure service activities should not increase with the general growth of wealth. There are common needs that can be satisfied only by collective action and which can be thus provided for without restricting individual liberty." (p. 257) Hayek had no inherent objection to governments raising taxes in order to pay for social welfare, healthcare or education, provided these services enabled citizens to achieve their own private goals. The problem is when governments force citizens to pursue the goals of a 'political elite.' Hayek did not oppose the welfare state. He opposed social justice which he defined as "the coercive powers of government to insure a more even or more just distribution of goods" (p. 259) |
|
13. | Rudd lies about his father's death | The Truth |
Kevin Rudd said the death of
his father, Albert Rudd, in 1969, from a hospital-acquired infection,
while recovering from a serious car accident at the Brisbane Royal
Hospital, propelled his political aspirations:
"Life changed overnight ... as I thought about it later on, as a kid growing up, it became clearer and clearer to me that the hospital system that I grew up with, that he had to use, was by that stage pretty much Third World." - Kevin Rudd, Sunday, March 4, 2007. He also claimed that Queensland surgeons at that time were basically incompetent, because, in later years, he heard reports that surgeons at the Brisbane Royal Hospital had failed to take proper care of his father. |
Channel Nine's Sunday
program obtained a copy of the coroner's report into Albert Rudd's death.
The report cleared doctors of any medical malpractice.
The report also said that Albert Rudd had been drinking before driving, that he kept falling asleep at the wheel, and that when the car hit a power pole, he was not wearing a seatbelt and suffered massive internal injuries. So without any evidence at all, Kevin Rudd maligns the reputation of the surgeons who worked to save his father's life, in order to conceal the fact that his father was a drunken driver, that alcohol abuse was the prime contributor to his father's death, and the source of Kevin's hardships as a child. |
|
14. | Rudd lies about his family's eviction | The Truth |
"I
think my father's death was difficult at an early age, being evicted
actually was the harder bit because we were share farmers, we didn't own
the property so bury Dad one day and get tossed off the property virtually
the next with nowhere to go and no assets because you don't own a house if
you're a share farmer either."
- Kevin Rudd, Interview with Julia Baird, ABC, March 5, 2006. "Within two or three weeks of Dad's funeral, we were told we had to go. I can remember the terrible discussion between my mother and the fellow who owned the land." - Kevin Rudd, The Australian Women's Weekly, January, 2007. |
The Low family claim that,
far from "evicting" the Rudds, their father went out of his way
to accommodate them. Acting as spokeswoman for her sisters, Daphne, Desley
and Joyce, and brother Neville, Jill McCahon said:
"He's dragged our father's proud reputation through the mud time and time again. Dad was a caring, compassionate man with terrific family values. What pains us most is the fact that he thought the world of the Rudds...He's taken the Low family for fools. We are now seeking legal advice on the matter." Long-term Eumundi residents said they had become increasingly mystified at the eviction stories. Daphne Greer knew Aubrey Low most of her life and regularly socialised with the Rudds: "The Aubrey Low I knew - and the Aubrey Low everyone else around here knew - would never have evicted Margaret Rudd. He was a decent man. The whole tale is bizarre, to say the least." Mrs McCahon said: "Since 1956, Bert [Rudd] had been employed as a share farmer and when the monthly milk cheque came in, his wage was half that cheque. Out of his money, his outlay was half the cost of feed for the cattle and any additional labour he may have hired. Other expenses were met by my father. When Bert died our father had no choice but to employ a new farmer. It was the biggest dairy farm on the Sunshine Coast and there were more than 120 cows that needed milking morning and night. Margaret would always have known at some point, inevitably, an incoming farmer would have to occupy the farmhouse. But provisions were put in place by our father for Margaret. He explained to her she could remain on the farm, at no cost whatsoever, until such time as the new farmer arrived. What Kevin has always failed to state is that the new farmer didn't even arrive until July - that's almost six months after his father's death. During that entire time, our family continued to run the farm. There was absolutely no reason for them to have left until the new farmer arrived in July. To continuously say he was evicted immediately after his dad's funeral is quite an unbelievable statement. Not only does he blame our father for the so-called eviction, he subsequently mentions having to sleep rough in a car." Joyce said: "My father was caring and compassionate, a wonderful man and I wish he was around to clear this all up. There was an arrangement made ... it [the eviction] didn't happen in the way he [Mr Rudd] said." Joan Keehn knew Aubrey Low and socialised with the Rudds: "When these articles began to appear, the older faces around town said 'That can't be right,' " she said. "Aubrey was a good fella, a hard-working family man. He provided for his kids and had a good heart." Eumundi Rural Fire Brigade's chief officer, Ernie Holt, said: "[Aubrey Low] worked hard and expected the same from those who worked for him. But above all else he was a good man." - Sydney Morning Herald, March 11, 2007. |

15. | Rudd lies about his front bench selection | The Truth |
KEVIN
Rudd promised to deliver Labor a new and younger leadership style to
defeat the Howard Government. Mr Rudd vowing to pick his own frontbench "I intend to get new talent on to the front bench of the Labor party and I've already indicated that Peter Garrett will be part of that new, talented line-up�There'll be others as well, I'm confident of that. I'll be leading the show and when it comes to the outcomes I want, I intend to get them. I don't care if anyone has opposing views � that's what's going to happen." -
Herald Sun, December 5, 2006. |
Kevin Rudd's vows
and intentions are just plain nonsense, and he knew very well they were
plain nonsense when he expressed them.
In reality, Rudd's front bench has not changed much at all. Apart from the departing Kim Beazley and the promotion of recent recruit Peter Garrett, Rudd has brought back former shadow ministers Craig Emerson and Bob McMullan. They can hardly be called "new talent." Furthermore, far-left faction members, Anthony Albanese, Kim Carr and Kelvin Thompson (before he resigned in disgrace), were retained in the new cabinet. And veterans Simon Crean, Jenny Macklin, and Lindsay Tanner can hardly be described as "new and younger." Rudd also has to abide by the ALP's strict affirmative action policy and therefore must appoint a particular number of women. Therefore, Rudd's bold promises to pick his own front bench are, in reality, so laughable that they can only be construed as a deliberate lie to impress the media and public. |
|
16. | Rudd lies about his 'drunken' venture in Scores strip club | The Truth |
"Well, Laurie, because I had actually drunk a fair
bit, I don't have a completely clear recollection...We can't actually
recall anything that you wouldn't see at most pubs across Australia..."
- Interview with Laurie Oakes, Sunday, April 19, 2007. "Look, what I can recall in terms of the actual venue itself was that not much more than you would see in the last 20 years in certain of the pubs in Australia, I've got to say." O'Brien: "But...you don't see lap dancing in most pubs in Australia. Can you recall seeing lap dancers performing while you were there?" Rudd: No, I can't. - Interview with Kerry O'Brien, 7.30 Report, April 20, 2007
"What I can absolutely recall is that there was
nothing inappropriate as far as my behaviour was concerned..."
|
Huh? Most pubs
now have lap-dancers? Or is Rudd really insisting he was too blind to see
bared breasts?
Scores not only has a spot-lit stage with strippers, it is crawling with women who sit topless with you for a drink and will dance in your lap for dollars. Even Ray Charles would have noticed!
So Kevin was too drunk to remember the strippers, but not too drunk to remember not touching them. How does that work? Rudd even admits he rang his wife the very next day to apologise...but for what? For having a drink in a bar that just like most Australian pubs with no lap dancers in sight??? |
|
17. | Rudd lies about watching Cowdrey and Thomson at the Brisbane Test Match when he was 17. | The Truth |
On ABC
radio, during the first test between Austrlian and India, Rudd told the
story of his first Test cricket experience as a 17-year-old who had come
to town by train to stand on the Hill at The Gabba in Brisbane to watch
Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson in full flight against the English. Rudd remembered the chant �Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if Thommo don�t get you, then Lillee must,� but mostly he remembered 42-year-old Colin Cowdrey - called to duty from England to halt the carnage - walking onto the field and going up to Thomson to shake the hand of the man who was going to hurt him. |
Firstly, the saying
�Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if Thommo
don�t get you, then Lillee must� was never
chanting in public at the grounds. Secondly, Colin Cowdrey never played in the Brisbane Test. He did not face the Australians until the Perth Test! |
|
18. | Rudd lies about his involvement with the planned ANZAC Day fake dawn service | The Truth |
�Neither I, nor
anyone from my office, has spoken to or had conversation
with anyone whatsoever about requesting the changing of
the dawn service time at Long Tan in Vietnam or anywhere
else. It has been reported in some of today's newspapers
that I requested a fake dawn service to be held in Long
Tan in Vietnam. That statement is absolutely false and
without foundation. It is also reported my office was
involved in hatching this plan for a fake dawn service
several weeks ago. This statement is also absolutely
false and without foundation. The newspapers go on to
report that staff from my office had also been involved
in negotiations with Vietnamese authorities to conduct
an earlier service on that day. This is also absolutely
false and without foundation.�
- Kevin Rudd, The Australian, April 8, 2007. |
KEVIN Rudd's office received an email in late March from the Department of Veterans Affairs warning him a �pretend� Anzac Day dawn service at Long Tan would offend veterans. Rudd said the email from Repatriation Commissioner Brigadier Bill Rolfe was not brought to his attention at the time [he didn't accept this argument from John Howard's re Children Overboard so why should we accept this from him?], or afterwards, when the issue sparked controversy about his alleged involvement in shifting the time of the service to accommodate television programming... In his emails sent to channel Seven, which have been obtained by The Australian, Brigadier Rolfe slammed the network for its plans to hold a �pretend� dawn service... On March 29, he wrote to Sunrise producer Adam Boland, saying: �I have a (personal) problem with the conduct of a pretended dawn service at 0400 hours on Anzac Day - at a significant site in a sensitive circumstance, where some effort has been devoted to obtaining official approval for conduct of a service at 0515 - in order to meet television programming times.� Brigadier Rolfe had already sent an email to Mr Rudd�s personal secretary Mary Mawhinney on March 27 expressing concern about the plan, saying there was �some danger in such actions of seriously offending veterans and perhaps the wider community�. - The Australian, April 13, 2007. Furthermore, Rudd even had airline tickets booked for the event! An email on the same day from Sunrise's production manager, Paula Crawford, was sent to Seven staff as well as departmental officials and Mr Rudd's deputy chief of staff, Alister Jordan. It says Mr Rudd and Ms Bishop have made private arrangements to fly to Vietnam. - Sydney Morning Herald, April 13, 2007 |
|
19. | Rudd lies about NT intervention in Aboriginal communities | The Truth |
"Well, we don't intend to roll it back
at all." - Herald Sun, November 14, 2007 |
The permit system was
scrapped by the Coalition government as part of its dramatic intervention
into NT Aboriginal communities last year. Indigenous Affairs Minister Jenny Macklin said legislation to reinstate the permit system would be introduced into parliament this week. - The Australian, February 17, 2008. |
|
20. | Rudd lies about Toyota Prius Availability | The Truth |
While outlining plans for the rest of us to change our
lifestyle to lessen carbon dioxide emissions on Melbourne Radio, Rudd
admitted driving himself around in a gas guzzling Ford Territory
provided on the Government car plan for MPs. When asked why he didn't drive a Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle, Rudd pretended it was not available through the government plan.
|
Democrat Senator, Lynn
Allison, rang the radio program and pointed out that the Prius was indeed
available on the government plan and that she (and several other MPs) had
one! - Courier Mail, April 19, 2007. Furthermore, according to the assessment of the Federal Government�s Green Vehicle Guide it would be difficult for someone concerned about environmental damage to make a worse choice than the Territory. It rates only 2.5 stars when CO2 emissions, fuel consumption and air pollution are taken into consideration. The Toyota Prius, gets 6 stars. Even the large Ford Falcon rates better than the Territory! |
|
21. | Rudd lies about his "Digital Revolution" | The Truth |
At the ALP campaign launch
for the 2007 Federal Election, Kevin Rudd
announced a plan to provide computers for every
child in years 9-12: "I
want to turn every secondary school in Australia
into a digital school."
A 15-page policy document labelled A Digital Education Revolution said: "A Rudd Labor Government will revolutionise classroom education by putting a computer on the desk of every upper secondary student...Students will have their own computer and access to the school's extranet and classroom content � both from their desktop and remotely. Schools will be able to apply for grants of up to $1 million...this could include personal laptops." - Courier Mail, February 21, 2008. |
"Well, we are leaving it to the
school how they do it , we are not mandating that every desk have a computer
on it but we are saying the aim of the program is to make sure every student
has access to a computer" - Julia Gillard, Interview with Mike Carlton, 2UE, February 20, 2008. By the way, all students in years 9-12 already have "access to a computer"! |

22. | Rudd lies about eating his ear wax | The Truth |
Rudd was filmed picking his ear and eating his ear wax. Mr Rudd has previously told local media he was scratching his chin. - Sydney Morning Herald, October 31, 2007. |

And there's plenty more to come... |
