The 'mad monk' surfaces.

A load of letters to the editor in today's press critical of Mr.Rabbit's fall into use of ecclesiastical rhetoric in prescibing what he thinks should be the the Labor opposition's attitude to repeal of the Carbon Tax. Checking back, I did notice he used 'sin'.'repent' and 'contrition' in his lecturing diatribe.

Apparently, his undertaking to keep religion out of politics was just another 'non-core' promise, made in different circumstances?
