Tim Blair demonstrates the true Australian virtue of "mateship" in this response to an idiotarian emailer who gloated about the impact of the recent loss of 17 of America's finest in Iraq on their families.

Thanks, Tim. Next time you swing through North America, be sure to make it down to Texas. I'll be glad to introduce you to some true Texan hospitality (lots of BBQ, real TexMex, grande steaks, and good local beer!)

Take a moment to remember those who served to preserve our freedoms, and if you know any veterans, thank them for their service.
