MaroonMan   10 #1 Posted July 18, 2003 As an American, I am very disappointed that PM Blair sided with our appointed President W. Bush. The Republicans have a conspiracy to deny us health care while the U.K. has health care for all their citizens, while our "leaders" had rather be imperialist. I was shocked that PM Blair, a man with a vision for the U.K. would unite with our sub par president for the purpose of removing a head of state without UN approval. I hope the U.K. voters return Tony Blair to office if he has learned from his mistake dealing with W Bush. We in the USA are not as great as we say. I'm not saying we don't have value as Americans, but conning Tony Blair--what happened?  Thomas Sheffield Tupelo (USA) MS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mo   10 #2 Posted July 18, 2003 Maroon Man please get your country to offer him a job then we are rid of him. There are moves a foot here to oust him as Labour Leader. I'll give him 12 months maximum.  The next leader of the Labour Party????? Sheffield's very own David Blunkett...watch this space. I am not a member of the LP by the way just my opinion.

Moon Maiden   10 #4 Posted July 18, 2003 Maroon Man I do not share your opinions on the war in Iraq - nor do I trust the man that conned his way into office in the U.S  As for UN approval - the U.K rarely follows any other countries aproval and does what it believes is right in the circumstances.  Tony will go shortly - you don't need to be a tarot reader to see that one coming  Moon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

GHaywood   10 #9 Posted July 18, 2003 MaroonMan I couldn't care less who Blair sides with as long as its right to do so. That's a problem I think many people have, they'd uphold their ideological principles even if it meant not doing what was right.  Of course then you can have a discussion about what is right and wrong but on Iraq I think it's pretty clear-cut.

halevan   11 #11 Posted July 18, 2003 Tony Blair is the best prime minister this country has ever had and I support him all the way, he is a good man and he did what he thought was right.  The man has a lot of courage, he has taken too much flak already,and it is time he got some support from the people of this country. Who else would have stood up to his critics and been firm in his leadership.  He is a hero in my eyes and deserves recognition, instead of being condemed for everything that happens in the world. the Iraq war was caused by the muslim fanatics of the world and must be rated the same as Adoph Hitler and his mad dogs.

He is a disgrace to the traditional Labour Movement in this country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
