I commend someone that is willing to do what is right only. Damn the pressure and the crazy anti American world we live in.

    You mean for standing behind Bush and "staying the course"?

    I heard on the radio this morning that the US has pretty much conceded the Al-Anbar province to the "political vacuum". I'm beginning to doubt if anything will ever be accomplished there.

    blair has been running my country now for nine years, and he is NOT a man of great courage. he is a weak man with little strength and resistance. he is very unpopular right now with the public, has been facing calls to resign for the past few months and has now set a date for his departure.

    before he became PM, he stated his top 3 policies would be, "education, education and education". a decade later little has changed. he has done virtually nothing for us here, just put a load of our tax money towards the iraq war which the people of britain didn't want. we're not into starting wars, it hurts to see people being bombed, and it sure as shit hurts to know how many of our soldiers have needlessly died because of a stupid false friendship with george bush.

    you obviously only like him because he is so close to bush. do some research and then tell a brit that he is a man of great courage.

    a man of no courage but a great politician. you have to be when you are the longest serving labour prime minister.

    as much as i am againt these two wars we are in i conceed that britain is a better place under labour than the conservatives. the sooner tony goes the better...

    oh and another thing on the courage note... what sorta courage does he have when he has outlawed peacful protesting around parliment? what sort of courage does he have when an 82 year old war veteran is arrested under terrorism laws for heckling? what sort of courage does he have when he does not admit, for right or wrong, the two wars were poorly planned and actually a disaster which has done little else but create more terrorism.

    Did you know, an anagram of Tony Blair MP is I'm Tory Plan B?

    Blair has absolutely no courage. If he had, he'd represent his electorate and their anti war beliefs, and not the prerogatives of the oil and arms industries.

    What really hurts is that we thought Tony Blair was different and that he'd do something for us. All he did for me was increase tuition fee's to invade Iraq. Cunty sweaty bollocks.

    Most likely because of my support for Bush, but I like Tony Blair very much -
    I'm thankful that he and Britain are an ally of the United States
    I'll keep taking punches

    I'd say it takes more courage to step back and say no to Bush to be honest! No one wanted the war and he went against his electorate.

    Tony Blair a man of courage????? LMAO! I thought every human alive knew he was a lying slimeball. Whenever I listen to one of his speeches, I hear a man talking in circles and saying totally nothing.

    OR....... he saw many things the same way Bush does, and the same way a lot of people in America do - and did'nt cave into the other European hierarchies pressure to resist what he truly believed in?

    Question is was he right?

    From the current situation I believe not.....

    I do not agree with Bush and his policies but sometimes I cannot fathom how some people get stupified that people will think like him....its not like it is unusual for two leaders to believe the same things.....are they right or wrong is the issue that should be examined.....

    tony blair is a politician.

    if you don't know that word, look it up in any dictionary.

    The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride." And we...kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.
