TONY BLAIR’S SEMI “MEA CULPA”

-

IT HAS TAKEN A WHILE FOR JOHN KERRY TO ARTICULATE his strong opposition to the Iraq War, but he finally got there.
Tony Blair may be following his lead in an effort to win back the support of angry Labor Party members. From a Reuters report:
“The evidence about Saddam having actual biological and chemical weapons … has turned out to be wrong,” Blair told Labour’s annual conference, his nearest yet to a “mea culpa.”
“The problem is I can apologize for the information that turned out to be wrong but I can’t, sincerely at least, apologize for removing Saddam,” he said. “The world is a better place with Saddam in prison not in power.”
Blair’s not quite there yet….but getting closer. British elections will probably be in May 2005. Watch the evolution. . .
