A commenter at the end of the article may be on to something.

Looks like Tony wants to sell a few copies in the Good Ole' U.S of A. Shrewd marketing strategy Mr Blair.

Good on Tony. The current president we have is an epic fail.

“Blair says he thinks Bush was the only politician in the world with the courage and commitment to take on al-Qaeda after the 9/11 terror attacks.”

What’s the point the writer is making? How can anyone dispute this?

The Left isn’t going to like that.

At least we did not have high unemployment on our way to National Socialism.

It’s easy enough to have a less-than-favorable view of GW. I know I had little appreciation for his domestic policies or his willingness to fold to the demonRATs.

That being said, GW is a decent man- perhaps far too decent for DC- and he kept us safe for the years after 9-11. The tin pots dicked with him far LESS than they are doing with the current bozo-in-chief.

I believe history will be far kinder to him than to the three losers the left currently worships- Clinton, Carter and Obama.

This is going to make the British Left apoplectic, which will highlight and underscore their terminal case of Bush Derangement Syndrome.

Blair is about as far to the left on every other contemporary issue as you can get, with the exception of the threat of Islamic Jihadists. But, because Blair recognizes this threat and openly speaks about it, he's persona non grata in liberal circles now - exactly like Joe Lieberman.

B-HO would have issued a stern professorial lecture from his bunker in Acapulco; “Let me be clear! There will be no ‘false choice’ between ‘identifying the enemy’ or ‘striking back’. I, with the help of my colleagues, will create and issue strong, comprehensive legislation which, uhhhh, combats such ‘man-caused tragedies’.” Then he would have rammed a bill down our throats for mandatory travel insurance.

The same crowd of Muslims would have been as equally ‘indignant’ as they are today - and exceptionally pissed off that B-HO didn’t ‘get’ their ‘message’.

Two men who took the Islamic threat serious. Bush’s legacy will be written by other than Big Media.

Tony always struck me as being “a little funny” as Fred Sanford would say.

Watch for negative stories about Tony Blair in order to discredit his book. Had he played the left’s game and trashed President Bush, then you would see positive articles in the near future.

Just wait and see.

The News of the World can reveal Blair says he thinks Bush was the only politician in the world with the courage and commitment to take on al-Qaeda after the 9/11 terror attacks.

British Friends and Allies,

For this reason alone (and there are others) I have always, always admired Tony Blair.

This from an ardent conservative, and frequent critic of GWB on other issues.

And he'd be absolutely correct. President Bush maintained that resolve as the left and their MSM minnions crucified him for that resolve. Eventually a good portion of the Republican caucus in Congress folded as well and Bush maintained. A salute for President Bush.

But then we elected a POTUS who said he’d stand with the Muslims if things get ugly!

What insanity! How casually people took their comfort and safety. The left is hell bent on undoing what Bush and Blair - and the military did.
