Embarrassing snubs and protests ahead: Bush to enter eye of British storm Posted on Monday, September 29 @ 10:11:31 EDT By Jonathon Oliver, The Adelaide Advertiser UNITED States President George W. Bush will face a series of embarrassing snubs and potentially violent protests when he makes his first full State visit to Britain, prompting fresh humiliation for British Prime Minister Tony Blair over Iraq. I was talking to a Brit just last week. I understand their hatred of Bush......most Europeans are pretty uniform in that regard. However, I think he hates Blair even more. Rightly or wrongly, there is a sense in the UK that Blair is so enamored of Bush that he was snookered into the war on Iraq. Hence, the term Bush's poodle. That is such a derogatory characterization. That alone would make be consider resigning but not Blair. He probably likes the term. <g> ted
