John Howard the sell out, stand for nothing.
He loves to wear Kangaroos, Wannabies, Aussie cricket, Succeroo gear around to try and trick some people into liking him. Trying to wrap himself in nationalism.
But the guy is an impostor.
He claims he is a St George Dragons fan, but I always found this highly dubious. There was the old story that he didn’t even know who the Dragons Immortal Johnny Raper was in person.
But recent election events sickeningly manifest my allegations that he is a sell out, stand for nothing, turn coat, team switcher, who uses sport to try to improve his popularity.
JOHN HOWARD A TIGER AT HEART.
Case in point was the announcement of Coalition funding for Leichhardt Oval, home of the Wests Tigers and of the joint venture partner and foundation rugby league club the Balmain Tigers.

Prime Minister John Howard revealed he is really a Tiger at heart at Leichhardt Oval on Sunday even though he is patron of his childhood St George Illawarra Dragons.
Mr Howard visited Leichhardt Oval where he was enthusiastically greeted by Balmain and Wests Tigers officials, players and Balmain juniors including Balmain Tigers legends Benny Elias, Garry Jack and Paul Sironen.
Balmain Tigers officials wanted to thank the Prime Minister for pledging $8 million towards the upgrading of Leichhardt Oval for the benefit of more than 100,000 people annually in a number of sports in addition to the Balmain Tigers, Wests Tigers and Balmain Junior Rugby League.
More than half of Balmain Junior Rugby League players live in the Bennelong electorate of the prime minister including the North Ryde Hawks, Holy Cross Rhinos, Carlingford Cougars and Dundas Shamrocks.
Fair enough giving much needed funds to Leichhardt. Great cause, much needed. I love rugby league and I love Leichhardt. I’m a Brisbane boy but some of my treasured rugby league memories are from Leichhardt, the place is amazing.
But he could at least do it in a manner that didn’t make him come off looking like a jackass.
Come to the function and say you are giving them the money because you recognise and respect the club and their history and the important part they will play in the future of the region.
Don’t come in saying you are a Tiger at heart after you have spent years suckling at the teet of the St George Dragons clamouring for the nourishment of sporting credibility.
And to actually use the term “at heart” is ridiculous.
The word heart means a lot to me, maybe it doesn’t to Mr Howard. But to say that to me means that is where your heart and soul truly lies. At the end of the day it’s Tigers #1 and Saints #2. It is a massive slap in the face to Saints fans and even to Tigers fans who are smart enough to see they are being used.
There is a reason this bloke gets so soundly booed at every rugby league event he attends! We have had his number for years and here he is showing his true turncoat colours.
He could have said he considers them a second team or always loved to see them do well as a respected rival. But no he raided the Tigers merchandise stand and got the inflatable hands and the beanie and the slippers. Decked out in gold and black declaring his heart is black and gold!
This bloke has no shame! He is a manipulator, a user and the sooner we are done with him the better!
What team will he support next?

OK to be fair that was a gift from the fantastic new Gold Coast Titans NRL club to John Howard.
But you have to admit he does look like a very happy present recipient.
