In (weak) defense of Prime Minister Blair, September 11, 2001 preceeded his 'chimpification' (if I can use that word).
The argument that I heard, here, is that the Prime Minister, after September 11, 2001, decided to commit 100% support the United States in all her retalitory actions against the terrorist activities. He has stood firm in that position. Unfortunately, he has ended up looking like a fool for keeping steadfast to this decision. Certainly, it is going to hurt him in the upcoming elections, don't you think? (Although I was surprised that the Austrailian Minister was re-elected).
It will be interesting, in 10 or 20 years, to read the memoir of the Prime Minister.
