A comrade in Australia e-mailed this excerpt from the Sydney Morning Herald:<p>Afterwards, Mr Bush invited the travelling Australian media into the Oval Office and delivered an effusively glowing description of Mr Howard as "a close personal friend", "a person whose judgement I count on" and "a man of clear vision".<p>Mr Howard conceded that he had been a little embarrassed by the fervour of Mr Bush's endorsement, knowing that it would probably spawn a new generation of invective from Opposition figures such as Mark Latham, who already accused Mr Howard of being an "arselicker" of the Bush Administration and described this visit as "a conga line of suckholes" heading to Washington.
