Wow Kudos Tony Blair
It's amazing to hear an intelligent leader actually speak about a hard subject with Jon Stewart. I didn't have to agree with Blair to understand there was a totally different level of thinking with the British leader that simply doesn't exist here in the US. Great interview by Jon.

2. dude that's so refreshing than listening
to the normal American politician on TDS. Tony Blair took hard questions and answered them. An interview where hard things are asked, and real answers are given. Then follow questions are allowed and answered. Compare that to the crap Palin interview Jon showed at the beginning of the show.

8. You are praising him for qualities that have always been
taken for granted in any politician. It is hardly to his credit that he outshines McCain and Palin. So does my cat.

3. He's the thinking man's war criminal;
It was a good interview (I think Jon Stewart is severely under-rated as an interviewer). But I'd still rather see him interviewed by a prosecuting attorney at the International Criminal Court.

6. Jon Stewart is brilliant, and a great interviewer
Tony Blair is not man enough to admit that he made a mistake. Sure, the Decider's "good ole boy" persona appeals to him, but can't he admit that decision making has to depend upon more than that.
