fustakrakich's Journal: Bush or Blair

I don't know who had the greater desire to go to Iraq. Either way, it looks like Blair was blackmailed into it, which had him begging for Bush to put up the muscle. Or maybe Bush (by 'Bush', I mean his staff/handlers) was doing the blackmailing. Hard to tell, but there is a story here, in addition to the phone hacking scandal, that makes the NSA thing look like just another day at the office. His whole attitude about the war is so much more understandable now. Is this what they meant by 'sex up the intelligence'? A DNA test will go a long way into settling this.

Overly concentrated power leads to abuse. Phlegm at 11.

Yes, political and economic.

And, yet, for all it's their political birthright, these kids don't want to meddle. Strange.

Re:

What in the world is a 'political birthright'? In fact, what the hell are you talking about?

Overly oblique Scooby Doo reference there. The plutocrats are Mr. ____, who would've gotten away with it, too, if not for these meddling kids.
Except, unlike the Founders, the modern American pouting class knows how to do precious little, save whine.
