Tony Blair is an idiot.

Former President George W. Bush was "true idealist" who "had immense simplicity in how he saw the world," former British Prime Minister Tony Blair wrote in his newly-released memoir, according to reports.

"Right or wrong it led to decisive leadership," Blair wrote of Mr. Bush's world view, the Daily Telegraph reports.

Blair also wrote that Mr. Bush "had genuine integrity and as much political courage as any leader I ever met," CNN reports.

Therefore he cannot recognize idiocy when he sees it.

3. but he feels bad about the dead peasants that just happened

to die in Iraq.(he was talking about British troops)

"right or wrong it led to decisive leadership".

Yeah, like making the same mistake on a larger scale than anyone else is someone I would want to follow.

The closest he got was "* had immense simplicity in how he saw the world" somewhere the dunce is trying to make a comeback and the rw is rewriting history as we're reading it.
