Having heard the speech from Blair to the US congress, you couldn't escape the lack of real substance in what was being actually said. I suppose you could not expect that. It reminded me of the many DC keynote addresses I have heard in my time as a dub. Very little substance but punctuated by rapturous applause. The faithful leave happy that they have gods blessing. Blairs speech had the same effect. It made congress feel good. I understand some were moved to tears. Ask them why and they won't know today. It shows how close the evangelist and politician both use the 'feel good' factor to delude. Critical thinkers can leave now because it is not for them. How similar they both are with the shamen in tribal communities of yesteryear in the way he would enact a struggle between good and evil around a fire with that would entertain and convince his audience that all was well. They would leave just as dubs from a DC or the Senators from congress yesterday.
