Lesson of the Day: Husic should learn to bowl

When Australian-born politician, Ed Husic, was recently sworn into the cabinet following on from last weeks political change there was more than normal the level of response from the public (read: none).

Husic is a self-described non-practising Muslim and took the oath of office on the Koran, rather than the Bible or whatever it is people use to represent them speaking the truth.  As a slight deviation, why don't we get politicians to keep their 'truth speaking' books with them at all times?

But I digress.

On the same day that Husic was abused for not taking his oath on the Bible (why are there no complaints when atheists take the oath?) Fawad Ahmed became and Australian citizen and possible inclusion in the Australian Test cricket team to much acclaim.

While Ahmed didn't turn heads (get it? pun on turning the ball) in his recent game with the Australia A team, he is arguably the best leg spinner we have in the country at the moment.

The lesson here?  If Husic wants to avoid these sorts of ridiculous torts in future, he needs to work on his googly.
