The difference between Blair and Clinton is simple. I disagree violently with Blair on many things, however I generally do not doubt that he believes in what he is saying, and that his belief is genuine. This is not to say that his beliefs are always coherent or backed by empirical evidence - far from it - but he is not the disingenuous, grasping huckster that Clinton is. And that was what made Clinton so dangerous: his sole cause was Bill Clinton, and satiating his desires whenever possible - for power, for money, for sex, for greasy food, what have you. And it was that man who had the power to blow up the world for 8 years.
Breathing a sigh of relief now that he's gone? My sigh in January 2001 could have been heard all the way in Sydney. ;)

Agree, friend. Sorry we inflicted him on you.
