Though U.S. President George Bush and retired British Prime Minister Tony Blair have their detractors, I think history will look more favorably upon pair. Indeed, I think they will come to be viewed as the Lennon and McCartney of the War on Terror: Bush supplied the vision and the determination while Blair provided the words, the poetry and the rhetoric. True, the partnership had its ups and downs – just like Lennon and McCartney's did – but the two shared many triumphs between them and broke new ground in the field of diplomacy and the waging of war. By the way, if Bush and Blair are to Lennon and McCartney, does that mean Dick Cheney played the role of Sir George Martin?

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it looks as though they're here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,I'm not half the man i used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why we had to go (to Iraq)
I sure know but we wouldn't say.
I said something wrong (deliberately?),
Now I long for yesterday.
I'm sure George W could give a heartfelt rendition of this.
[apologies to Paul McCartney for the slight change in lyrics]
