CHERIE BLAIR AND RETIREMENT

POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN BY YVONNE ROBERTS IN THE GUARDIAN

Cherie Blair is a national embarrassment.

Great gaping yawns in public, photographed to last for all time.

Special personal assistants striving to mend her tendency to slouchy, gum-chewing behavior.

Absurdly expensive haircuts, intended to make a ripe plum from a prune, all done at the expense of others.

Vapid speeches done for profit on the American rubber-chicken circuit, displaying not an ounce of awareness of the dignity expected of her position, the funds being destined to pay the mortgage on a pretentious house beyond her family's means.

Blair is a criminal, but Cherie is an idiot.

Whatever she does in retirement, we can be sure it will be air-headed, if not downright squalid.
