This is no time to be cynical, though. No, this is the time to support those who are prepared to support Batman. People like Federal Member of Parliament, Martin Ferguson AM, who is leading the charge by making Batman the focus of his election campaign.
Batman has lived in the shadows for so long, rejected and often persecuted by those he seeks to serve. A better future for Batman? Martin Ferguson, you've got my vote.
UPDATE
Hang on a second! This is a turn up. Seems Martin Ferguson isn't just supporting Batman; he's out and out working for Batman!
Forget Batman and Robin. It's Batman and Martin! I've got to say, it's great to see a politician stick their neck out like this; a politician prepared to speak with actions, not just words. Keep watching the skies, Mr Ferguson, and when the people of Melbourne need you, they will call.

Hahaha, nice post! Batman is awesome :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Daniel. He really is, isn't he. Good to see those down at City Hall finally waking up to the fact.
ReplyDeleteIf there was any doubt that support for the Caped Crusader comes from all sides of the political spectrum, I am pleased to report that I recently attended a Liberal Party fundraiser and receieved a number of favourable comments on the "Batman Begins" tie which I was wearing.
ReplyDeleteTruly a bipartisan issue.
Good to hear he's got support on all sides. Your tie gets me thinkin'... if ol' Marty ever got dumped from his seat, the victors could run a media campaign along the following lines:
ReplyDelete"With this victory Batman Returns to its traditional values and the Dark Night ends. At last Batman Begins to heal. Working together we can ensure Batman Forever remains a place where all can live in peace and prosperity, and we promise there'll be no new big taxes hitting the constituents of Batman and Robin the most vulnerable in our society of their security."
You know, if they wanted to? (Sorry about that last one.)
It seems somehow appropriate to apologise for "Batman and Robin".
ReplyDeleteNot that it helps, or is in any way my responsibility, but I apologise for Joel Schumacher as well.
