In a saner world, Blair would have never have considered particular sorrow at what was once a universal evil and would have literally snorted at the very idea of an apology, preferring to say that he was proud of how Britain lead the fight in abolishing the slave trade throughout the world and would do its best to combat its resurgence-- especially in places like the Sudan and Saudi Arabia.
I am not, however, holding my breath.

Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
