I used to have a little respect for Tony Blair, but no more.
When he backs smirky the chimp 100% in this fiasco, he has lost my respect. You can have an honest difference with someone, but it seems like Blair doesn't even know he's being taken for a ride. He's supposed to be at his job for another year to year and a half, but the way he's going, he's lucky is he's there another three months. It truely makes me sick for Blair to sit there and try to rationalize Bush and is also painful to watch Blair spin like a washing machine. The sooner we get rid of George, and the sooner the Brits get rid of the poodle, the better off we'll all be.

2. on the CNN after-party,
John King (former WH correspondent for CNN) expressed his surety that any successor to Blair would side more strongly "with Democrats." Though I'm not sure how this will help us, specifically, it will be a welcome change from the status quo.

7. Bad when Germany, Russia, France and others have the
contracts and influence in Iraq, as if they would support Iraq exporting terrorists to their countries.... what's important is that they no longer have the contracts, the economic influence or the potential to have the Iraqis take payment for their oil in euros.

10. Yes, when he told the Royal Family they needed to understand
the feeling of the people when Diana died I thought he was a very intuitive person but when he let *ss bamboozle him I changed my mind. He is a blind fool.
