Kucul: 'The Fall of George Bush and Tony Blair'
There's never been anything like it.
In a time of relative peace, two countries and their sitting governments in collaboration, using lies and propaganda to gain support for an illegal war and getting busted for it.
And it's not Germany and Italy we're talking about, nor is it China and North Korea.
It's the United States and Great Britain.
In case you haven't heard, this week British PM Tony Blair and his director of communications Alastair Campbell announced they will refuse to give evidence to a Foreign Affairs Committee investigation into whether or not they deliberately lied in regards to intelligence concerning Iraqi weapons of mass destruction.
The heat is on for Tony Blair, and for all of you Bush fans out there, his refusal is eerily reminiscent of Bill Clinton at one time refusing to testify regarding Monica Lewinsky.
But this doesn't have the giggle effect of oral-sex and a stained dress. This is seriously different and so are the consequences. The consequences are that over 5,500 Iraqi civilians that had nothing to do with terrorism or weapons of mass destruction are now dead and/or rotting in the rubble of bombed-out buildings in Baghdad, Najif and Tekrit.
The ramifications for both men extend to impeachment and to being tried for war crimes, though the latter is doubtful.
What's happening to Tony Blair right now gives George Bush the unique opportunity to look into the future. And I doubt that he likes what he sees. What he sees is Tony Blair plummeting from the one-time political Wonderboy to a man cowering in a darkened room under a bundle of blankets laid there by his increasingly meager group of supporters.
The heat is already rising on Dubya. Just last week three major national American dailies brought this issue to the forefront. Rest assured that as America's favourite British lap-dog is euthanized, the folks in America will start to ask why. Hopefully they won't have to tune into the BBC to find all this out.
Yea, the good old days are a memory now. The sweet smell of victory in Iraq has been replaced by the sting of painful questions and nagging doubts. Even the Dems are beginning to ask questions. It's my understanding that the entire Democratic Party has undergone hormone replacement therapy and had their testicles injected with testosterone. Even Madeleine Albright and Janet Reno got a whack of the juice, whether they needed it or not.
So where we stand now is that we have one leader who refuses to answer questions and one that never could. A Mute and an Illiterate. Two glaring examples of how seriously the Western gene-pool has deteriorated from neo-conservative cross-breeding.
What will we do with these two guys?

Yeah, well I'll believe it when I see it. I'll bet my rapidly diminishing net worth that Knucklehead is invulnerable and in January 2005 we'll all be listening to him mumble his renewed oath of office.
