“…a US State Department official has said that Britain’s role as a bridge between America and Europe is now “disappearing before our eyes”.
Kendall Myers, a senior State Department analyst, disclosed that for all Britain’s attempts to influence US policy in recent years, “we typically ignore them and take no notice — it’s a sad business”. (Times of London)
Another case of the painfully obvious showing up as shocking news. We all knew this, that Blair was Bush’s poodle, but it still seems shocking to see it acknowledged by the State Department. Is it safe to assume this Myers fellow is on his way out at State? Condi can’t be thrilled with this. And George won’t be happy with Condi. Trouble in paradise.
I think Colin Powell is also getting a few shots in. heh.
It’s only Thursday, but on the heels of the “Maliki Snub” (I smell a dance craze in the making), can we officially declare this a lousy week for W? To clarify, it would be a lousy week for him if he actually gave a shit about anything, which he doesn't.

Hmmm.
I guess we should all be grateful that Rosie wears underwear.
And what of General Bananarama of Fiji? Don't tell me he's given up his quest for leadership?
I swear them Mexicans is crazy.
Thank goodness for boring Canadian politics.
Oh, I don't think Ashley's still in the running, is he?
He's a national icon, and one of the country's greatest bisexual fiddlers! ahem.
He's just plain gay. Why did he go bisexual? Probably to attract more moderate voters. Ahem.
I knew Ashley's political aspirations were over when he admitted in a drunken interview to drinking his boyfriend's pee.
Nothing kills a political career faster than that. Like I said, boring Canadian politics.
boring?! no way! the joint's jumping out here
