COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE GUARDIAN
Is there a sillier leader on the planet than David Cameron?
“Calamitous”? What an utterly inappropriate and inflated
word to describe his own fears of losing office.
I won't comment on Mr. Cameron's handling of Britain's domestic
affairs, although my reading is that a great many people in the country are
considerably less than charmed.
But Mr. Cameron's record in running Britain's foreign
affairs is just a dreary and embarrassing series of daily salutes to
Washington, each time asking, "Yes, Sir, what do you want me to say or do
today?"
I didn't think it possible that Tony Blair could ever be
outshone in pure obsequiousness, but Cameron seems to be making a great and
mighty effort to do so.
God, what a relief if a Labour-SNP coalition could put an
end to that.
