AbstractHistoryArchive Description

This drama is a confronting historical snapshot of the 2004 election landscape - Howard works in the high flying world of the corporate sector and hopes to make a huge impact on the world stage one day. But for now he is at the beck and call of his boss Bushy - CEO of a huge foreign-owned energy conglomerate by day, fearless corporate vigilante by night. When a major takeover bid is rejected by the Government, Bushy declares war! It's not long before Howard joins the crusade and his tongue shifts into overdrive. Is Howard the man he appears to be? Why does he have people detained in his home? Is he an accomplice to murder? What happened to his Christian values? Is he a lying rodent? Is he trustworthy? As Howard's world spins out of control, there are clearly no depths too low for Howard to stoop. He doesn't know it, but his actions are about to bring him face to face with the darkest depths of human despair and depravity. http://sydney.citysearch.com.au/E/V/SYDNE/0030/20/98/3.html (Sighted 23/09/04)
