It looks like a scandal to rival that of Watergate is now brewing over the US intelligence used to justify the war in Iraq.
It looks like time is up for the US's (soon to be our's...) President Bush and a scandal to rival that of Watergate is now brewing.

And finaly...
Britain has by now lost its sovereignty to the United States and has become a client state. As Tony Blair flies in to Washington today to be patted on the head by the US Congress, this is the sad truth behind his visit. No surprise, therefore, that the planned award to him of a congressional medal of honour for backing the US invasion of Iraq has been postponed. To be openly patronised in that way, under the circumstances, would be just too embarrassing. Source The Guardian
