HEADLINE - "Blair says he hopes Guantanamo will close" - msm hope: please just read the headline.
STORY - '"I hope that the judicial process can be put in place, which means that Guantanamo Bay can close," he said during his weekly question session in the House of Commons.
"However, the reason I always qualify my answer on this is as follows: This arose out of the worst terrorist act this world has ever known in which 3,000 totally innocent people lost their lives in New York"' Adding further, '"That's why it has to end, but I'm afraid I will always when I answer questions on this draw attention to the circumstances in which it was introduced."'
Different when it is in the context of the article, isn't it.
"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05
