The Last Liberal Warrior?


Today we are hard pressed to find anyone on the Left who thinks freedom - or for that matter, survival - is worth fighting for. So it's a sad day.

TONY Blair will leave 10 Downing Street for the last time as Prime Minister more than a decade after his historic 1997 landslide win.
The Sun can reveal that he has finally decided to step down as Labour leader on May 31 next year — exactly ten years and 30 days after becoming PM.

Where does this leave Britain's contribution to the war on terror? What does this mean for England and its burgeoning population of Muslims? It's anyone's guess, but I doubt that Blair's retirement is in any way a positive thing.

This means that when the Left accuses Bush of doing things "unilaterally," they might finally be right.

We'll have Australia, Poland, and... anybody else?

I personally don't see good things coming for Great Britain once Tony Blair leaves. I suspect that whoever is elected will be exactly the opposite of Blair and that Great Britain will pay a high price for it.

It will be a little glimpse into what America's future would be with a liberal President.
