Never, have I been so proud of my country, and my Prime Minister, as I am today.

Never, have I been so proud to be a part of the people who elected the government that represents us.

And never, have I been so hopeful for a good political future in this country.

I just wish Brendan Nelson had said, "I agree" and stfu.

Peace,
Rotae

Here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stolen_generation). :(

You should watch a film called "Rabbit Proof Fence" if you get the chance. Brilliant film and depiction of what happened.

Peace,
Rotae

Oooh. Well, kudos to them for the apology; it's more than most governments ever do.

Yeah. It's not exactly something we promote, lol.

To quote our Prime Minister from his speech:

"...removing a stain from the soul of Australia"

Peace,
Rotae
