Re: Robin Williams
I remember reading about the outrage in Australia that Americans should be upset by that blackface skit on Hey Hey...it's all in good fun right?? Now the shoe is on the other foot and I see the Aussies are all up in arms about it.
Seems we can dish it out but can't take it!

Tiger Woods is a bad loser, Muhammad Ali was a bad loser, Roger Federer is a bad loser.......Being the best should be applauded and it is high time that average or mediocre is seen for what it is.
He is the epitome of a gentleman sportsman. When was he a bad loser? (other than the fact that he is very bad at losing i.e. he keeps winning things)

He is 110 years out of date, OZ become an Independant country in 1901 and Aussies were no longer English then, many were Irish, scots and Welsh anyway. The term redneck is an American invention, Americans are the Rednecks.

Re: Robin Williams
It's nonsense that Australians can't lose or be critical of themselves. Politicians often go on the defensive.
