Obama's speech

I agree. It should never be forgotten how much Blair lied, especially after promising to be 'whiter than white' in his post-election day speech and also saying that they would not raise taxes. He brought politics into far more disrepute than any other UK politician in history. New Lie have been shown to be nothing but 'champagne socialists', even more so in view of the latest expenses scandals.
Hopefully, we shall see some return to honesty with a new Tory government, if they get the chance. :freaky:

I don't think Blair ever said that he wouldn't raise taxes - I think that the promise was not to raise income tax, which he stuck to during his term as PM.

Sure he did not raise taxes. Gordon Brown did! :mad
 
he reminds me of someone but Im not sure who
 
Well yeah, here's a couple:

He's against the war in Iraq.

He's for some for of universal 'affordable' health care plan.

How different is that from McCain or Clinton. They have one or two big headliners as well. Reverse the question and ask of the rest of the field and it's not so different.

Well I have better policies than that

1. I am for world peace
2. I am for health and prosperity for all (especially contractors :happy)

I think you missed the point (surely not!).

Cyberman's post said that Blair promised not to raise taxes, and was therefore a liar. My post was that Blair promised not to raise income tax, which he stuck to.
 
Uhh.

“I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uhmmm, some people, out there in our nation don’t have maps and uh, I believe that our, I, education like such as uh, South Africa, and uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uhhh, our education over here in the US should help the U.S., uh, should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for us.”
