Thread Name: BS: Is Tony Blair a lying sack of shit?
Subject: RE: BS: Is Tony Blair a lying sack of shit?
Wouldn't surprise me if the ICM poll was spot-on (they're usually prettty accurate). But that doesn't make me any more inclined to support Blair's action. The British newspapers have been largely pro-war (with the exception of the tabloid Mirror and the broadsheet Guardian and Independent on Sunday), and most people in the UK care little for politics with a large or a small 'p' (just look at the title of this thread if you have any doubt). Thus they'll grumble and gripe, but generally go along with what they're told is good for them.
Let's face it, for all the vitriol and huffing and puffing these days, enough people once voted for Thatcher to get her into power. Heck, even I once voted for her!
That aside, can someone please explain what Teribus is blathering on about? Has h/she actually fallen for the blandishments of this bunch (and check the names at the bottom)?
