Interesting, that just a few years ago we saw him as another Clinton wannabe. He has turned out to be the direct opposite of our impeached ex president.

Clinton will fade into obscurity in the pages of history. Blair will walk into greatness.

Character does matter, and while I may not agree with him on other matters of ideology, he at least knows the difference between right and wrong.

This is the key difference between Blair and Clinton - Blair believes in things. He may not always believe in the right things and often times he's thoroughly wrong, but he believes, and will pursue causes he feels are just and necessary. He strongly believes in the rightness of what we are doing in Iraq, and this is producing his finest hour.

Clinton in contrast believes in nothing but the service of his vanity and ego. I've read accounts in which Blair was totally exasperated by this. Blair is also apparently delighted to be dealing with an American President who means what he says.

Regards, Ivan

Funny, I was just telling my wife a couple of days ago that Tony Blair is all that Clinton thought he was (and wanted to be), but wasn't. I disagree with many of his policies (of those that I know), he is a leftist of the first order. But he sees the world in real terms, he knows what the phrase "to lead" means. Clinton was willing to risk nothing to get what he felt was right. Blair is willing to risk everything for what he feels is right.

God Bless Prime Minister Tony Blair. A man of courage, character and conviction.

The anti-Clinton.
