Howard's character on the line.....again

The unacceptably stupid and turgid comments from Bill Heffernan about Julia Gillard are one thing. The Prime Minister's inability to hose him down straight up is another.

John Howard's character continues to be called into question.

Why didn't Howard react quickly after the initial uproar about Heffernan's comments? Does the PM actually agree with them? Did Howard hope the storm would actually be a mere puff of redneck wind? Is he sick of his Ministers painting the Tories as a bunch of Neanderthals, but was just too tired to be bothered?

It's again a question of character, attitude and ability...
