That has to be the guiltiest smile since Nixon.

Would you buy a used car from this man?????
That smirk reminds me of the grinch.
They've just done the same thing to Howards wikkipedia entry.
This is what they use tax payers money for?
Ue sourire se fait tant avec la bouche qu' avec les yeux. Et là, je trouve que Mr Costello a de la tristesse dans le regard.
Well, I went to a drinks party in his office when his third child was born and he was ecstatically happy and a charming host. I sat with him in the staff dining room at parliament house, a few times, chatting away while he rushed his lunch of hamburger and fries. So many of the parliamentarians eat in the members only dining room but Peter isn't afraid of mixing it with the staff. He is a very nice man with a great sense of humour. He is an incredibly hard worker and highly respected amongst his colleagues.
Think of the alternative - Wayne Swan for Treasurer? I think NOT!
Claude,
Je pense qu'il est une personne très bonne. Il a été un
trésorier competant en Australie pendant beaucoup d'années et notre économie est en meilleure condition que toujours avant.
Perhaps his sadness is because he should be Prime Minister. You are correct; the eyes express more truth than the mouth, n'est-ce pas?
His eyes never smile.

When it comes to smirks, our President Dubya has everyone else beat! The man cannot smile without a smirk.
(I live in New Jersey, USA, but love Adelaide - have been there several times!)
