Beazley inserts foot in mouth

Yes, thanks Kim for those kind words.

Mr Beazley began a press conference in Sydney today by expressing his sympathy - but to the wrong Rove.

"The first thing I want to say is this - today, our thoughts and the thoughts of many, many Australians will be with Karl Rove as he goes through the very sad process of burying his beloved wife,'' Mr Beazley told reporters.
