Well for Tony its a toughie. It is true, he has been wedded to his focus groups the entire time in office, but he's also a sucker for meeting the rich and the famous, often quite in awe of them {edited - wrote 'him' by mistake}

Now George is:
a)Rich
b)The most powerful man in the world
c)Charming

Tony will do anything for him, even abandon his focus groups.

I'm no fan of tony Blair, but in a weird way its good to see him finally sticking to something he thinks he believes in.

BUSH SAID that the size of the protests against a possible U.S.-led war against Iraq was irrelevant.
“Size of protest, it’s like deciding, ‘Well I’m going to decide policy based upon a focus group.’ The role of a leader is to decide policy based upon the security — in this case — security of the people.”


Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

But even he isn't that sure. ;) But I'm glad the focus groups have gone, in a way.

Blair is running a huge risk politically, and is placing his Premiership in Bush's hands. I'm not sure Bush would reciprocate if the Presidency was on the line.

You people sound like the Islamic leaders in IRAN...

You praise goverment (the islamic leaders) and discredit anything and anyone who has another view of things..

Weazel = Rushdie (spelling?)

This is america, if weazel or any other american wants to show their dissent then let them do it...  Dont discredit them..  Allowing them to Freedom of Speech is what makes america, America with a capital A...

Do I agree with everything weazel says no..  Does he have some valid points. yes...

Censorship is the first step to Americas Downfall.....

These are times that are testing.  Do not fall into the stupidity that is current state of the  3rd world nations..
