Good Riddance.
I have always kind of dug the British (truly it ‘twas forced upon me) way of doing things and still trust the common man’s informed political common sense over there. My older sister has been revisiting her high school in Kent, England for the past 30 plus years and confirms that this remains true. Common people have a common sense about this war and recognize above all how unnecessary, expensive and tragically wasteful in terms of the thousands of lives lost, it is. Tony Blair started out as a promising star of British labor until he succumbed to Bush and Cheney’s thirst for American Empire or International Manifest Destiny/Pax Americana.
His popularity, like Bush’s, is at an all time low and I’m sure people there, are as relieved to get rid of him, as we here, are to see him go. Good riddance mon.

Blair sensibilities were injured when he was called Bush's lap dog. Together they created a world far unsafer than they found it.

I agree wholeheartedly: The man had so much potential but his legacy will always be of unmitigated failure because of this ridiculous war. What a shame & what a waste. Let's hope Gordon Brown can do better. Labor will be gone in the next general election - just like Republican are on their way out here - thanks to Bush & Blair.

G. Cyrus.... Blair has more class in his little toe than you do in your whole body.

Blair does have class, he screwed up and then showed dignity by resigning. History will look upon Blair much better than Bush who has destroyed the GOP for a generation.

I think Tony Blair has an itty-bitty crush on Bush, don't you?

Tony Blair is a decent guy just like Bush as far as the war on terror is concerned. People don’t stand up against evil anymore. It’s more and more evident, in some recent videos, one showing an old guy being beaten senseless and others nearby doing nothing to help him. So with that kind of mentality why would people support war against terror when they don’t even lift a finger to help they own neighbor.

The letter writer and his twisted posting cronies are to be commended for being the lap dogs of Harry Reid and (ugly thought but I have to say it) Pelosi.

Why insult lapdogs. GD Cyrus is more like a terrorist lover cockroach.
