But like all PMs he did have his ups and downs.

description: Liberating a country from an authoritarian government to a democratic government, from a dictator who abused his own people even his own followers, used chemical weapons against his own Iraqi citizens, and brought geopolitical instability to the entire Middle East ............... is not an evil "oil driven" campaign. Hell, our oil prices in the U.S. are going up real high again, not down. When you look through history, there are countries who harbor terrorists or ideologies of violence - and they've always been met with opposition. In the last 20 years or so, however, there have been very few nations that have had the gonads to say "we're going to do something about the Middle East". The U.S. and U.K. were two nations that stood close to each other and I can tell you that U.S. citizens were quiet pleased to see this sort of alliance. I've served 5+ years in the U.S. military, proudly, and in the intelligence community. I had absolutely no choice whatsoever in the fact that I had to read military intelligence (both local and global) from a read board, daily. And some of the things I read just simply disgusted me. I am not saying that mistakes haven't been made or that the tail end of the operation was completed properly -- because there are many opposing perspectives that I do agree with. But generally speaking, this truely was a justified war, and anyone with their noses outside of a public newspaper would know that. I'm not here to flame one side or the other, but I really wish that people would take the time to research the events that lead up to this war, the events of the war, and the events following the war; rather than simply assuming what political agendas were and that it was the motivation for the war: it's simply absurd.

Allows anyone to just walk into the county then provide them with everything Allowed someone to die, with just giving the killer "dangerous driving without due care and attention" Taxes went up for the government to manage the country I believe. Schools are underpaid for a reason.. I don't know why though. Children are forced to go to school for a reason... to learn. You people insult us in being "STUPID!" and "FAT", and schools are suppose to oppose to that. But complaining that the government is forcing children to go to school as that argument going on... just no. We need to be as smart as possible to live a well managed life. The sue thing... I know, it's bullcrap. Most Americans wished that people won't sue for pointless things. Umm... how did US make it hard for you to fly a model airplane, and how the heck can a speed camera cause crashes? We don't purposely allow just anyone to walk into the country! we have country border guards everywhere near mexico! Although we are the melting pot of the world, terrorism happens seldomly. I don't know what you are talking about. But perhaps the police didn't know that the killer wasn't a killer? Yeah... If you notice, this is mostly (or all) the governments fault. It's true, a lot of Americans hate their own government. There is a bunch of conspiracies that someone cracked the ballots and had bush when, but then... kerry is also a ass.

I can't fly my airplane because laws on the transmitter, the "noise" disturbs people and it is "dangerous". I have to fly it on private land, but anything that our "generation" find fun. There is a law against. We should have a choice weather we want to be tramps or not, there are some times when going to school is not needed at all.

description: I don't know much about the education situation over there, but requiring children to attend school until they're 16 or so (18 if I had it my way) is a good idea. Speed cameras don't cause accidents here, so I don't see why they'd cause accidents there. Plus if you slam on you breaks because of a speed camera, it wasn't the cameras fault - it was your fault for speeding in the first place. The transmitter thing is debatable, but considering you're a much smaller landmass I can kinda understand the law. As for the topic itself, I can't say much about Tony Blair other than the following: The US citizens truely appreciate the alliance and comradery of the British people and their leadership. I know that many nations have been arguing about what to do about this and that - but I can tell you as a U.S. citizen that I've never run across another citizen that wasn't happy with Britain and their support for our sacrifices in the war. Rather than focusing on the bad things, nations are close as ours need to start focusing on the positive advances. Blair wasn't necessarily bad in that area: he did what he felt needed to be done and it was very much appreciated by the American people. I know he is your leader and not ours, but all things considered he wasn't a bad guy at all.

description: fl00d3d wrote on Sun, 20 May 2007 01:44 Plus if you slam on you breaks because of a speed camera, it wasn't the cameras fault - it was your fault for speeding in the first place. Speed cameras have been erected in the UK as a means to generate money for the Local Authority and not for the Police (They only enforce the penalty). Generally speaking the cameras were supposed to be erected in places where there were at least one fatality or 2 serious pedestrian accidents. We all know that this is not the case. The cameras are mounted everywhere and even if people are travelling at the correct speed, particularly on a dual carriageway, there is a tendency to slap on the brakes from 70 mph to 60 mph or less, thus the driver behind brakes and so on down the queue until BANG! CRASH! there is an accident. Speed cameras are in fact proven beyond reasonable doubt to be causing crashes and some Local Authorities were forced to remove them and to have the total amount of cameras capped at a specific level until further notice. All this in the name of Blair. Keep in mind that he is but a puppet. He can stand and talk, sure he can but so does a ventriloquists dummy who also has the strings pulled for it.

description: I'm not informed enough on English schooling to form an opinion about it. But Scottish schooling as far as it goes is decent, and I currently go to a pretty tacky looking school that struggles for textbooks etc. I don't think we can fully blame Blair for the state of schools though. But education does need to be worked on, and constantly worked on. If I had my way I'd remove advertising directed at children, make them start school at an earlier age, setup programs on making informed decisions and researching information. Information and education are both the key to a democratic society working properly. And to be honest Gamemodding you will hate school because like everyone at your age you're an angsty teenager who is sick of everything. Just like we all were. With regards to chavs, I don't know a great deal about chavs down in England. But with regards to neds up in Scotland. They are fairly easy to deal with in school. There are a good couple of methods for dealing with them though.

The teachers don't care if we get good grades or not, we've actually been told this. Everything we do is watched over as if we are totally and utterly stupid. Uniform is a big part of the school, and i don't mind at all wearing dress codes and looking "smart". It's just when you don't look smart and uniform is terrible. The teachers look at you as if you're just scum. I had a week working (voluntary) at a hospital. I had to wear shirt, tie black trousers and shoes. I had to do stuff that weren't particularly good jobs, EG: unpack 100 computer and 100 monitors and store them but i would much rather have a job there than go to school.

What about giving the "Old Buddy" a bed bath as she makes attempts to maintain her dignity or changing the colostomy bags and collecting urine samples. Then again I suppose for people that have never worked and sat all their lard arses behind a monitor for weeks on end, must think that storing PCs and monitors is hard work. What about coming with me and picking up body parts, rescuing kids from fire, mouth to mouth resuscitation on casualties only to have them die in hospital. Deal with the junkies, drunks, ethnics, down-and-outs......... Where do I stop? You had a piss easy week in a hospital. Get a life from now on and realise that you got it easy.

If not, there is a time and place for every action, and its not N.Koreas time yet). Hitler also was an environmentalist, but you don't see many people praising him. Sadaam was a terrible tyrant gone out of control and it was our responsibility to clean up and Iraq up (along with the chemical weapons) because we're the ones who essentially built the middle east. People seem to be pretty ignorant to the fact that many of these issues stem back to the 70's and 80's and that there is so much more to the picture than "omg Bush is evil he just wants oil". It's honestly not an issue that 90% of the general public has any intelligent grounds to speak on. Unfortunately, it affects the world in so many ways and we're left to pick pieces of information out of the media who taints reality. The war was justified. Get over it. As for Blair (on topic), he wasn't a bad guy in regards to his position on the war; domestically I have absolutely no idea.
