That's the question that's agi;atin me, and

tracted kuntry. There can be no peace so
long az the Blairs are out of office. The
Blairs must have places. A Government
without Blair into II Is not legal. Linkin
failed TO kommand the respect Of the 3lalrs,
and where is Linkin johnson let the
Blairs go and what an full example Is he !
