...anyone catch it?

Old Fraser is pretty sharp still. Gough is getting on. My god havn't politicians changed. It just reminds you how prosaic John Howard and his front bench are.

I saw it. Fraser seems to have lightened up a tad, and my dad whos pro-Whitlam said that he had "smartened up a bit".

He did. I was impressed. Someone should retire poor old Gough. I really think both Fraser and Whitlam are living legends.

Well Kerry o'brien did make note of the fact that Whitlam turns 90 soon. I was suprised he could still maintain a half coherent argument at that age.

Malcolm is 75....

Gough predicted that he wont see another federal Labor gov in his lifetime after the bomber lost last. Fair claim. Not sure why I brought it up really.

I heard a radio national interview with both of them last night. I agree that Whitlam is getting a little slow and often doesn't seem to answer questions in the way the interviewer intends. Fraser is cogent, I find it sort of amusing how he just won't back down on the events of 75... ha ha.
