Australia is the new safe-haven escape for disgruntled Americans, unhappy with the impending election results.
Unhappy potential voters took to Twitter to warn their fellow countrymen that they would be shutting up shop and moving to the wonderful land of Oz should Obama win the election.

"If Obama wins im moving to Australia and becoming a kangaroo whisperer," tweeted @GriffinWilson1.

Another user, @CarsonCagle wrote: "If Obama wins I'm moving to Australia and going to Hillsong University."

@Chuck_Addis wrote that if Obama won he would be making his family move to Australia. "Not becoming a communist," he wrote. "End of story."

To think that americans should think we are some sort of republican haven is a dismaying thought. We typify everything they hate; universal health care, state control of education, compulsory voting, gun control, small local government,

Hi Clete,


Yes, but after a couple of years than come to love the place.


Tut

Americans are fooled by images of Paul Hogan's character of rugged individualism . These tweeters couldn't tell you that the PM of Aussie is a commie.

Yes, but we are going to vote her out in the next election.

Then you'll have done better than we did. $ 3 Billion spent in the campaign and this is the best we can do ?

Ah Tom you weren't really trying, your candidate failed to inspire, as to Paul Hogan, yes, the place is full of bogans so in that case they would fit right in.

You know Tom, you are too good at stereotyping, Julia isn't a communist so much as she is a self centred Bltch and we are sick of hearing her whinning voice. Tell you what Tom I'll swap you Julia for BO

No deal but Mitt needs a job!

No Tal we have enough career politicians already and in any case we have Malcolm Turnbull, perhaps you would like a good candidate, Millionaire, Corporate raider turned politician, very experienced, oh I forgot for a moment you tried that, silly me.

The election cycle is over here Clete, no time to party, as there are a back log of issues to deal with. Just be wary of old white guys with fake ID's and a lot of money coming your way. Hope you have as much fun with them as we did.

We don't have many old white guys in our political ranks, the cut and thrust wears them out, no fillibusters here all must earn their keep, but we are used to carpetbaggers from the north. Tell you what, we have some nice real estate we can sell them, wonderful views of Lake Eyre

Our old white guys never quit, as long as they are making money.

Yeah like Kennedy ;he croaked in office. As for Romney ;he is definitely not a career politician . As you saw ;he's not very good politics .

Romney's been around a long time, your politicians seem to make the transition from state to federal politics, ours rarely do, when you blunt your reputation at state level, it is hard to make the jump, few have been successful at it. Our current foreign minister seems to be one of the few, but then he was able to retire before the state went south under his tutledge.

We have plenty of rich, vocal, would be political leaders but fortunately our rich keep to oiling the wheels of industry and leave the stuffing of the country to lawyers and such

Romney served 1 term as Goveror ,that was it as far as politics goes before his runs for the White House.

So unable to make the transition then, even though he has been around, although doing what is anyone's guess. Obama seems to think he might have some milage left on him yet, he wants to consult him

Obama is posturing . Now that Romney is defeated he will become the Dems favorite Republic.

Sort of like a new Colin Powell or Chris Christie. Watch out consensus is catching

Where is that place again?

Christian president who "actually supports what he says".

Confused? So was Kristen Neel, a teenager from Georgia,

It is sad that americans don't know anything about my fair land, that's right, Australia Fair, words out of the national anthem

So this land ruled by an athiestic, feminine, socialist, Prime Minister typifies the romance of the land of Oz. Pity she hadn't read the fairy tale and realised this land is ruled not by a christian but by an evil wizard, a usurper of power and position.

But this is the land of legend, the promised land, the far land, sunshine and shrimps, whatever they are, kangaroos and gold in the streets, and just for the record we don't like boat people and overstays, illegal immigrants and bludgers

Give it a month for the crying to stop. I mean they wanted this so badly.

Look if all those white republicans want to bring their money over here, fine, but realise, you will be taxed. If you earn more than $150,000, you pay the highest rate and no deductions, and you will pay those who work for you at least a minimum wage of $16 an hour plus benefits. No slave labour here
