3. Well, there's a shocker. Can Bill Kristol be far behind?
Wrong about everything. Tony Blair's historic legacy is that he was Bush's sock puppet.

4. Isn't that the medal Bush gives to assholes that lie for him just before they're fired?

8. Tony Blair kept his conversion to Catholicism secret while serving as PM
and he was nothing more than Bush's lapdog on Iraq.

The Medal of Freedom has become an updated version of Laugh-In's Fickle Finger of Fate Award. All the neocon failures got one.
