Doncha wish Cherie Blair was Prime Minister instead of Tony?
http://politics.guardian.co.uk/cherie/story/0,12713,1340677,00.html

(she's a human rights lawyer)

Monday November 1, 2004

"Cherie Blair has mounted a fresh attack on the legality of some of the Bush administration's decisions by challenging the legal basis of the imprisonment of terrorist suspects at Guantánamo Bay. "

...

"In a previous lecture, she criticised the US administration's refusal to sign up to the international criminal court. "

...

"Mrs Blair was reported to have criticised the arrest of a gay couple in Mr Bush's home state of Texas for defying a ban on sodomy, and said a supreme court ruling against the ban was "a model of judicial reasoning".

"The ban was backed by Mr Bush when he was state governor. "

1. Without Question!
There is a much greater chance that she would have told Bush to take a hike--no way is Britain going to get involved in Iraq.

2. Nope.
She has a few controversies of her own to deal with. I with Sooty was the PM.
