Goes to Credibility. You think something is interesting only when it has a dig at the Prez in it. Or it portrays the Repubs in a certain light. Not very well rounded. Again, goes to credibility.

No, it means what is the point of posting al ink and not talking about it in some manner?
Frankly, I read very few things you link to - any fool can sit there and post links. It takes a bit of a thought process to put an iea into words, express it, and then add a link for futher info or reference.
The link itself is........duh?

In other words when I post a link you'd like me to editorialize on it. Generally I do. This one I thought spoke for itself. It indicates that even within Blair's own party they've asked him to resign due to the liability of the Labour Party being associated with a very unpopular war over there, and Blair's total support of President Bush who apparently is even more unpopular there than here (which based on the latest polls is difficult to beleive).

As to criticizing GW, well I've been here so long watching criticism after croticism of the Democratic Party and Clinton. Problem is some posters know how to dish it out, but have difficulty taking it when it comes home to roost. When G;s policies are allegedly called crap by Tony Blair's number two man, and members of the GOP are dissasociating themselves from many of his policies on the campaign trail, something is obviously a problem here and with our biggest ally.

You have got to be kidding me....Do you actually believe this? On this board? When?

The ratio of Democratic criticism started by righties versus Republican criticism started by lefties is about 1 to 10.....

Asked to leave

Blair asked to leave; Leiberman asked not to run by Demos- which party is the "big tent"?
