The sad end of a brown noser!

Was thinking about the British Prime Minister Tony Blair who was forced to announce his plan to resign in June. Blair will go down in history as the one who lost everything by supporting President Bush for the Iraq war. During the drum roll for Iraq war, it was Blair who gave coherence and logic to the concept of ‘nipping at the bud’ the threat of a nuclear attack by a rogue country in the Middle East. Most of the American people knew that the warmongers in the Bush administration were exaggerating things about the impending terrorist attack from Iraq. But Blair came across so earnest and sincere. (Americans are suckers for the British accent anyway!). Without Britain, we would have had a ‘Coalition of the Willing’ with countries like Mongolia, Singapore and Tonga.

Is President Bush grateful to Prime Minister Blair for all this? Was Blair the bosom buddy of Bush, exerting influence on USA world policies? I think the video of Bush at a recent World Economic Summit, condescendingly summoning Blair to his table by calling ‘Yo, Blair!’ says it all. In addition to smelling bad, one also lose respect by kissing someone’s you know what.
