Man, this is getting fun to watch. Fleischer's "Who's on first?" moment yesterday was classic.

This is why I think the accountability focus on Bush would be really effect.

The slogan could be:

Bush's best is not good enough for the country.

Blair under fire as White House rejects British intelligence claiming Iraq tried to buy uranium
By Ben Russell and Andrew Buncombe in Washington
09 July 2003

The White House has dealt a devastating blow to Tony Blair by rejecting as flawed British claims that Saddam Hussein attempted to buy uranium from Africa to restart his nuclear weapons programme.

The Bush administration was in full retreat yesterday with officials admitting that the allegation should not have been included in President George Bush's State of the Union address. The American admission represented the first serious split between London and Washington over the case against Saddam and exploded into a full-scale row in Westminster as Mr Blair told senior MPs that the Government was standing by its story.

Conservatives, Liberal Democrats and Labour backbenchers demanded that Mr Blair release the intelligence behind the allegation to an independent inquiry.

The Shrub is dancing the Texas Two-step in Africa regarding this one.

I was watching the BBC world news last evening on BBC America and noticed that Tony Blair is taking his lead from Bush. When questioned about the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq he said that there was evidence of weapons programs in Iraq.

But, unlike the American media, the BBC called him on it in the summary of the report.

I think Blair's political career is ending very rapidly in the UK.
