Hey, I'm not pro-TB
(
none / 0

Not in the least. But I was responding to Fran's very flippant suggestion that being a hypocrite and a murderer both describes Tony Blair and are not desirable attributes for European leaders. Forgetting TB for a minute, does a search for other leaders, present or historical, find any who have successfully united disparate parties on an international level and not had those same charges placed on them by armchair politicos.

The fact that most people in positions of power turn out to be assholes does not necessarily mean that one should pick somebody one knows to be an asshole for a position of power.

LOL
The peak-to-trough part of the business cycle is an outlier. Carnot would have died laughing.
