1. Yeah, Tony Blair is irrelevant. He's having "an opus dei."

2. still acting as Bush's poodle, I see.
What a complete embarrassment for the British he must be. The Conservative party is headed for a landslide majority thanks to Blair, even though the Tories are widely hated in the country.

4. What a horrible thought.
I hope British voters remember - and think very carefully about - the Thatcher years.

It took 18 gruelling years to kick the Conservatives out of power, and they haven't changed at all since then.

Still worshipping Milton Friedman's failed policies - that Reagan then foisted upon America.

Please guys, don't open the door to Thatcherism again.

5. Is there any real difference between Blairism and Thatcherism?
question is serious.

3. Back into this situation again? Better not.
Gaza is a bungled catastrophe, 1500 dead, incomprehensible reasons for it,
conditions in Gaza deplorable, and Israel looks completely the villain
to the world. The world is repulsed!

Only the insane would not do everything conceivable to avoid
doing this again.

Solve it! Solve it before the world finally has enough and impliments
the "Strangelove Solution", (a nuclear warhead on both capitols.)
