So I start my morning peruse of the blogosphere and see this at Glenn Reynolds’ site:
BRITISH: “Special Relationship” with U.S. Is Dead.
UPDATE: Reader Paul Jackson writes:
Who could have foreseen that the president who follows Obama will have to hit the reset button…..with Great Britain and Israel!!! And the list may grow longer, he’s only been president for 14 months. India anyone?
Yeah, so far this “smart diplomacy” thing isn’t living up to the promises.
OBAMA DID IT! Surely that’s what the article points out – isn’t it?
In an apparent rebuke to Tony Blair and his relationship with President George W Bush, the report says there are “many lessons” to be learnt from Britain’s political approach towards the US over Iraq.
They are talking about the strain on U.S/British relationships caused by Bush. Get that Glenn? It’s the 7th paragraph down in that article.
