The view from across the ...Roger,<BR/><BR/>Interesting stuff. The view from across the pond here in London is no less scathing. My wife and I watched appalled as Bush presented Blair with his gong. The press here refer to Blair as Bush's poodle and the way Bush summoned Blair up to the podium was rather like I call my dog back in the park. <BR/><BR/>Blair was a good Prime Minister until Bush rolled up. As a result of his collusion with Bush on the war against Iraq, he is now descredited and is often referred to as Tony B. Liar.<BR/><BR/>On a fundamental level, these guys were completely dishonest with the voters and the UN in the run up to the war against Iraq. My view is that if you start a war, knowing that your cased is based on lies, then you are a criminal. If they had told the truth as they knew it they'd never had got away with it.<BR/><BR/>Bush disgusts me. From his initial election to his last public speech, it's been lies, cheating and dishonesty. Good riddance to bad rubbish.Rog Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08139705078907584931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12596260.post-41788312713824852392009-01-17T01:56:00.000-05:002009-01-17T01:56:00.000-05:00I like how you say exactly what I'm thinking, but ...I like how you say exactly what I'm thinking, but with so much less profanity.<BR/><BR/>Seriously, that "significant disappointment" line?

It is not incumbent for a President to be in harm's way, and he was taking Secret Service advice to go home another way.Roger Owen Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05298172138307632062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12596260.post-37813520316071152972009-01-16T16:59:00.000-05:002009-01-16T16:59:00.000-05:00I disagree about returning to Washington. Taking ...I disagree about returning to Washington. Taking the job of president meant that his life would be at risk (Not to mention the fact that he didn't really seem to care about his wife's location in the White House). Plus, he simply disappeared for hours at a time. To my mind, his actions escalated the fear on 9/11.<BR/><BR/>That aside, though, he was always clearly incapable at doing the job. Yet, many Americans were less interested in competence than folksiness as a criteria for the job.GayProfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11289510184782252498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12596260.post-80228436967791482322009-01-16T14:16:00.000-05:002009-01-16T14:16:00.000-05:00An Unreflective Man by Pat Buchanan: http://www.hu...An Unreflective Man by Pat Buchanan: http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=30256Roger Owen Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05298172138307632062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12596260.post-46597411601626392182009-01-16T10:10:00.000-05:002009-01-16T10:10:00.000-05:00You said it all.You said it all.Rebecca Hickmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04564610692580203203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12596260.post-37145533160666909012009-01-16T07:34:00.000-05:002009-01-16T07:34:00.000-05:00Well said, Roger.Well said, Roger.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
