PM John Howard is like a foundation for us in the WOT.
I'm sure that he has brought Tony Blair around to the position that Tony is in. Friends in Australia have told their relatives here that Howard told the lefty NZ leader to stop backing the wrong people behind closed doors in early 2002. She has been basically quiet since then.
My heart bleeds for the good conservative Canadians like you and the other good people. We had 8 years of the Clintoons and know what you are going through.
