Is Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews going to "stand by" still more of his egregious untruths? As chair of the editorial board of a major university press, I can say definitively that you aren't a co-author of a book if your name isn't on the title page. And you aren't one merely by virtue of contributing a paper or chapter to an edited volume. -- William J. Mitchell, Cambridge Massachusetts, Letter to The Age.

"Gormless pillock" was an early appelation for Jeff Kennett, the former Premier of Victoria who paved the way for John Howard's storm trooper levelling of democracy in favour of the corporate fascism we have today. Kennett was neither gormless nor a pillock. But Kevin Andrews is. Macquarie Dictionary lists for "gormless": dull; stupid; senseless. The MD doesn't include "pillock". For this I went to the Urban dictionary: Noun for Idiot, fool. Originally a slang term for the penis. You want more synonyms? Urban lists these: twat, moron, dunce, fuckwit, pratt, blockhead, bonehead, etc. They all apply to Kevin Andrews.

And yet, the chucklehead (Bilegrip's synonym) insists he co-authored the books in question.

"I was one of the people who authored one of the chapters in each of the books. In common, everyday parlance, as one of the authors I presumed you called yourself a co-author - that's all I've simply done."

With the same mind-numbing ignorance he cruelled Mohamed Haneef. It beggars belief that he is unaware of the difference between a co-author of a book and a contributor.

The Federal seat of Menzies (Victoria), for which Kevin Andrews is the sitting member, needs its own Geoffrey Cousins, who today advertised in the Wentworth Courier, to show the people there how yet another Howard Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, is being paid with taxpayer funds to subvert due process.

In a grand irony, Euthanasia campaigner Philip Nitschke, is running against the Christian nutter Andrews in the upcoming election. Click here for a map of the Menzies electorate. If you live in any of these towns, you might want to start a mini-Cousins-like campaign of your own.

In the end, Andrews is one of the John Howard Party's best reasons for retaining the current legislation pertaining to unfair dismissal. Every workplace has an obnoxious incompetent like him, and they are almost impossible to get rid of. At present, any boss with half a brain, would not only sack this git, but escort him out the door with a firm boot up his backside.
