Labour Party Humiliation

It hasn't received much attention here in the U.S., but Tony Blair's Labour Party finished third in last week's U.K. local elections, finishing behind even the Liberal Party, the first time in memory that the ruling party in the U.K. has finished third in such elections. Ousted Labour party officeholders have blamed Labour's support of the Iraq war as the cause of their electoral misfortune.

The British people have spoken on the issue of Iraq. If polls here in the U.S. are any indication, we Americans will also repudiate the War criminals in our own country in November. Election day cannot come soon enough.
