Blair 'agrees' with UK Army chief

Tony Blair has said he agrees with "every word" the new head of the British Army said on the Iraq war.

The Daily Mail quoted General Sir Richard Dannatt as saying he thought UK troops "exacerbated" security problems and should withdraw "sometime soon".

Mr Blair said transcripts of later radio interviews showed Sir Richard was saying "the same as we all are".

He said they wanted to exit Iraq "when the job is done", and to remove troops when no longer needed in certain areas.

...

Mr Blair said when Sir Richard talked about the troops' presence exacerbating problems in Iraq, he thought he was "absolutely right".

1. "when the job is done" ???

2. My head hurts.....so he agrees that the troops being there makes the

problem worse, BUT he says they won't leave until the "job is done"?? Poodle doesn't agree with the Army chief at all.

3. Hasn't he resigned yet?

I'm almost envious of a Parliament government, at least England can kick the bastard out. Bush's ilk is like a fungus, thanks to voting manipulation there is no end in site.

4. I don't know if you've seen the photos that appeared in

the UK Daily Mail the other day. And I'm not kidding about this.

One shows Blair on his hands and knees so that Bush could use step on him to get into the cab of his pick-up' I mean Bush was stepping on him in the photo.

The other photo showed Bush only half-grinning at the photographer, if that, out of his side of the cab, and Blair sitting forlornly in the open back of the vehicle with the dogs!

They didn't look as if they were intended as joke photographs. You couldn't make it up, could you? He didn't even have the character to tell Bush, if he thought he'd allow himself to be photographed in those poses, he had another think coming!
