A new age hubris?

John Collins points out that Australia Post is now not only putting paid adverts within the stamp cancelling print on envelopes but also within the actual stamps.

Is this surprising given that we have a Prime Minister who has already demeaned the office by parading for the press on his morning constitutional walks by wearing a tracksuit emblazoned with the name of a private telephone company?

I can only compare the demeaning of the high office in this manner as the equivalent of prostitution.

Much ado has recently been made of radio announcers cash for comment payments - has the Prime Minister declared any benefit from the millions of dollars worth of advertising that he provided the telephone company by wearing its logo on his back?

Is this all part of the new age Christian hubris that he appears to espouse in order to emulate his American leader?
