Commenting on "The trouble with Kevin is, well, Kevin"

@bowski, "How embarrassing for us as a nation for these 2 bananas to represent us on the international stage", was it a question or a sigh?
Can't you remember former PM Paul Keating had warned us about Banana Republic? Was there a hidden message?
The adage says "if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys." With the recent pay increase for the PM and MPs, we shall be paying more than peanuts; it's more like paying for Queensland bananas when floods destroyed the crops. Now, do we get bigger or better monkeys to run this nation?
Oops, did I just say Queensland banana? Oh no, we are getting a Queensland monkey as a replacement!
