they said the same thing about Hitler :-).....I would not trust him...one speech that many may see as being in support of going after Americas number one boogie man does not a great man make....how do you feel about kissing the pound goodbye?

That's more than slightly unfair. Blair did go over the top about the Euro, but so long as Gordo is chancellor, forget it - he likes power too much for him to recommend the Euro.
Even so, it'll be killed in a referendum - a referendum which would be a gift to the Tories.
Again, you are seeing things from an "all good" or "all evil" perspective - what I'm saying is that Blair is right about this issue, and he has been courageous in what he's done - he has gone to Pakistan today where there are more people than not who want his head on a platter (I merely want him out of office).
Furthermore British troops are already engaged - the SAS is in Afghanistan, plus the Gurkhas, Royal Marines, Army, Navy (27 ships no less) are in the region. What the bloody hell do you want him else to do to prove he's being a resolute ally? Signing his soul over to you in a deed drawn up in blood is not likely.
