Blair hasn't said anything that Bush hasn't basically said as well.
I think we have to consider Blair a full partner with Bush. It'll be years before we know the full story though. I think it is pretty comparable to Thatcher and Reagan who I would consider partners as well. Blair's domestic agenda really isn't the most salient point though he gets attacked for not being conservative here at FR. He's certainly not the worst Labor leader Britain has suffered.
We don't want to go it alone as the solo superpower. We need our allies and coalitions. But none are quite so comforting as our Commonwealth cousins, England and Australia. Perhaps in coming years, Canada will overthrow their Frenchesque leadership and rejoin the Anglosphere.
