John Howard was called "Honest John" as sarcastic nickname

at least get your facts right. his nickname Honest John was given to him in reference to his actual honesty.

Absolute BS. You are trying to re-write history there.

...the name "Honest John" was bestowed on him ironically by none other than Paul Keating, in the late 70's after Howard as treasurer promised his "fist full of dollars" tax cuts and did not deliver after the election.

which IRONICALLY was then adopted by media and the people in general as an ACCURATE estimation of the man. He continues to be considered by the bulk of the population as essentially honest. The term Honest John was a term used by most for exactly what it says.

ha, ha, ha that is so funny.

WTF?
