Stamp collection moment?

The opening paragraph in today's William O'Rourke's Chicago Sun-Times column says, "Karl Rove might have had his stamp-collection moment. Stamp-collecting caused the downfall of another Bush presidential adviser, John Sununu, George W.'s father's chief of staff. In 1991, Sununu had a White House car and driver take him to a stamp auction in New York. Sununu sent the car back empty and returned in a corporate jet. The resulting scandal drove Sununu from office."

I'm not quite sure what he's talking about but seems he's implying stamp collecting is a bad thing. I've written Mr. Rouke and it will be interesting to see what he has to say.
