Tony Blur, "New Labor" and the Nanny State

Because social democrats and center left parties like Britains Labor party and the German Social Democrats have conceded so much ground on issues such as health care, pensions, support for unions, free trade... they have very little to stand on so we now hear alot about, modernization, competetiveness, bold reform and MORALITY. This is truly the last refuge of scoundrels. Clinton loved to talk about it, he quoted the Bible more than any other President, and Tony Blair has made a career of it. Now that he has hitched his wagon to W and the neo-con crusade he really has to push it because he can't back out now without looking like an opportunist. Developments at this years Labor Party conference show exactly what to expect for Tony's last term, union bashing, moralizing and more "it's not our fault that terrorism exists, those people are BAD."
