In no way whatsoever is Tony Blair a wimp.

Oh geeeze....I sense a firestorm of outraged freepers gathering together flamethrowers. Okay, I unilaterally and categorically APOLOGIZE to all who might be offended by my rather flip post regarding Mr. Blair!!!! He rocks.

How does he stack up against the Iron Lady Thatcher or John Major? In your informed opinions?

John Major?

One of the worst pms EVER.

Thatcher, on foreign policy at least, Blair is at very least in her league on that front.

LOL! Hey, Ex, I'm not the flamethrower type!

[I neglected to note that the quotes are from today's edition of the San Antonio Express-News and I could not find the link online.]

Mrs. Thatcher left a grand legacy for anyone to live up to. The first time I saw Mr. Blair [on t.v.,] he was walking in a crowd surrounded by secret service. A man advanced and began grabbing at him and shoving. In a flash, Mr. Blair cold-cocked him. It was fabulous.

He's had no party support and no support from his cabinet. He had to literally put his neck on the chopping block to back Bush. He has my loyalty. It's good that I'm not the POTUS, he'd only have to ask and it'd be done.
