What Happened to Party Boy?

I went to Brookings today to hear Prime Minster Kevin Rudd of Australia give a speech about the future of Australia's foreign policy. It was a fine presentation. Rudd was elected late last year and it is exciting to see his enthusiasm and willingness to establish Australia as a "creative middle power" in the international arena.

During the whole speech, however, I kept thinking of party boy Corey Delaney. What is he up to these days? According to Adelaide Now, it turns out he signed a deal with O2, one of Britain's top mobile phone providers. "If you thought you'd seen the last of Corey you were sadly mistaken – this is only the beginning," says his agent. Oh dear.

On a more serious note, check out Prime Minister Rudd's apology speech from last month. If you think Obama's race lecture in Philadelphia was impressive, take a look at Rudd's remarks about the "Stolen Generation" of Aborigines. Amazing. And sad.
