2. "will the foreign sec. now encourage the Prime Minister to come this house

to debate?"

Great question. Don't you wish we could have Bush come to Congress to answer questions directly.

Of course neither of them will do it.

3. Ironic that everyone is wearing poppies in remembrance of war dead

in all conflicts since WWI. Effing hypocrites.

8. Peter Tapsell may be conservative but he just

served BLIAR up on a platter - responding to a Labour MP, he reeled off the numbers of dead and injured and said that Blair is figuratively speaking steeped in blood than any Scottish leader since Macbeth.
Damn that was beautifully stated.
