When I think of Blair I think him as Clinton's *****, but someone posted back saying it was the other around Bubba was Blair's poodle. Nobody on the world scene aided and abetted Bubba like Blair through his travails. Blair did stand with us in Iraq. I think the British wing of England know that they are an anchronisn and only our support can ensure the survival of their way of life, kinda like Israel. Having said that it is also true that Blair's position in International Socialist Circles is more important to him than anything else.
Blair is an interesting case. My opinion of him is this - he is a sincere man, even if he is wrong, he is sincerely wrong. He believes in things - they may not be the right things, but he believes in them nonetheless.
This contrasts favourably to Clinton who believed in nothing except himself, in my view.

I agree with you 100% and IMHO is why Blair has stood with the US he knows on the US can give him a true world platform.
