A google search gives very little support to my thinking it was actual. A wikipedia reference attributes the retort to Fred Daly (ALP) with the Country Party Member unspecified. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Archives/Language/2007_Dec ember_10 There's quite a few references to it being Doug Anthony making the statement including http://www.geekculture.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=13; t=001345;p= http://mybrain.ej.am/rootsite/lyrics/countrymember.html http://f2.org/humour/quotes/politics.html Which attributes the retort to Gough (which is the version I vaguely recalled as being "correct") And hundreds with neither party specified Hardly conclusive IOW. However there also seems to be a bit of a history of the same phrase in the UK as well including this http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/content/Features/KarlMinns/default.aspx?brand=ENO nline&category=KarlMinns&tBrand=ENOnline&tCategory=KarlMinns&itemid=NOED12%20Sep %202007%2011%3A29%3A54%3A813 So I'm guessing I was too kind to the witticism of our pollies...

Here's another variation from Wiki: Even Parliaments are not immune from punning uses; as recalled by former Australian prime minister Gough Whitlam: Never in the House did I use the word which comes to mind. The nearest I came to doing so was when Sir Winton Turnbull, a member of the cavalleria rusticana, was raving and ranting on the adjournment and shouted: "I am a Country member". I interjected "I remember". He could not understand why, for the first time in all the years he had been speaking in the House, there was instant and loud applause from both sides.[78] -- Clem |
