Blair has sold out every principle his party stands for. If he wanted to be Thatcher in drag, he should have run for the Tories. We need fewer "wartime leaders" and more people committed to solving problems instead of causing them. I care about employment, health care, housing and social equity. So this means you promote pestilance, disease, war and famine? Hey, let me scare you with an egg salad sandwich and some Red Green videos. ]]> 3545@blogcritics.org Sun, 16 Feb 2003 16:38:35 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/02/16/144402.php#comment-3543 Jim, you live in a mirror world: what is important to me, you utterly discount, what seems important to you is beside the point to me. "Social democracy"? horseshit in need of being sold out. Blair is a great and moral wartime leader, that's what is important. ]]> 3543@blogcritics.org Sun, 16 Feb 2003 16:12:18 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/02/16/144402.php#comment-3542 Eric, are you high on crack or driveway sealant? Tony Blair is an opportunistic little weasel who has corrupted the Labour Party, selling out social democracy at every turn. Americans seem to love Blair because they have no idea of how parliamentary democracy works. It isn't about a leader and dicates, it is about consensus and managing the odds. Blair is riding his party into oblivion just as Brian Mulroney did with the Tories in Canada. ]]> 3542@blogcritics.org Sun, 16 Feb 2003 15:52:13 EST
