Julia Gillard Versus Kevin Rudd

There is blood in the water in Australia. A coup was executed by Gillard, and her handlers in 2010 against then PM Kevin Rudd. Now in February 2012, Rudd has successfully tricked Gillard into thinking that Rudd would appear on a Four Corners documentary about the coup but backed out at the last hour. She granted an interview in order to balance the story. In the interview, she was highly defensive. In its wake, there is an impending showdown with Rudd taking advantage of her ridiculous answers on that TV program. He resigned from his role as Foreign Secretary. To have been ousted a coup is extremely damaging, his authoritarian style caused was deemed the cause. In the ensuing battle, old footage of Rudd was leaked of him screwing up his Mandarin. I wonder by whom? Australian politics is rather nasty indeed.
