   Email To Brentano: Jack Straw. Iran   
   17 Jan 06 11:47:53   
   
   From: GDHDTHSHS@SDSRSF.COM   
      
   Generalissimo,   
      
   I did enjoy Jack Straw on Channel 4 news last night. He was being   
   interviewed by Jon Snow, who dutifully, though rather pointlessly and   
   disingenuously, was insinuating that Mahmoud 'Adolf' Ahmadinejad's plan for   
   building an atom bomb with 'Jerusalem' chalked on the side was bit of Allied   
   spinning. How childish of Snow: mind you, he was very shirty about the   
   Civitas booklet the night he had someone on to talk about it; in fact the   
   whole of the news programme was, for once, mildly un-PC just so Snow could   
   bat for the media during the interview; I know these cocksucker's little   
   ways - apart from anything else, Snow's on the Spare Plinth Art Selection   
   Committee.   
    Anyway, Straw said this, in that whey faced, hunted, yet fluent way he's   
   developed: 'the international community is not split about the Iran issue,   
   but it is in two minds.'   
      
   And now I give you a link to Polly Toynbee, who is effectively defending the   
   kind of high-handed, hands-on/out of touch ministerial behaviour currently   
   being exhibited by that stupid cow, Kelly. Toynbee, naturally, wants   
   ministers to be relieved of Personal Responsibility while preching that   
   decisions should be taken out of their hands and left to 'professionals'. Do   
   you have anymore faith in today's 'professionals' than Blair's Guardian   
   journalist-turned-Minister for Ed.? I don't.  Let the political classes have   
   any more rope and they'll use that rope to climb out of any every fuck up,   
   and the already laughable notion of honour will no long be even a mirage.   
   The standard resignation debacle now requiring 2-3 scandals instead of one   
   (see Blunkett). I know Ms Toynbee is fighting hard to reduce this country's   
   standards to that of the third world but etc.   
      
   And Toynbee says that the media is 75 per cent 'rightwing' (when did right   
   wing become all one word?) - is it? The BBC, which is the dominant media, is   
   the opposite as are her paper, the Independent, the Mirror, the Obs. The   
   Standard is good on wasteful socialism, but still pinko in its trumpeting of   
   fatuous multicultural slogans. And it only stopped licking Ken's arse   
   because of the row with Finegold about the concentration camp guard comment.   
   Furthermore, if Ruth Kelly was a concservative Ed. minister, Toynbee would   
   have rubbished her Opus Dei beliefs in said column.   
      
   All cunts. Woss that in latin? Totas Vaginas? Good blog name.   
      
   regards!
