Accelerating republic debate for Australia?

With the country facing a myriad of environmental, economic and social problems, Kevin Rudd is quoted as suggesting an 'accelerating' debate this year on the subject of an Australian republic.
Yeah. Just what we really need at this juncture, a very public divisive national quarrel to divert us from the real work at hand.
The culture warriors might enjoy the thought but many of us would rather have all our teeth pulled.
The sight of Rudders constantly rising to the media fly this way and allowing it to set the political agenda exposes an irritating weakness.
So short, sweet and without rancour, Kev - p^ss orf!
Your behaviour is beginning to make Julia Gillard look like a very attractive option for PM about now.
