Scotland's First Minister Jack McConnell: Warmonger In Idiot's Clothing

Calling Jack McConnell an idiot is really doing a disservice to idiots. Every new policy and idea he brings out makes him appear as the blueprint for the "Do as I say, not as I do" brigade, and there are more than enough of that type in Scotland already.

McConnell is a man whose first act in power was to call a press conference in order to admit to an affair with a woman in case it leaked to the press. The press admitted they had known about this affair for years but were simply not interested. Doh! The press who attended said the whole thing was excruciatingly embarrassing and it a clear case of McConnell showing himself as a man who had an overblown sense of his own self-importance.

McConnell was on Newsnight a few weeks ago, and when quizzed as to whether he thought his leader Tony Blair was right to go to war, he squirmed and ummed and ahhed until he finally admitted that he backed the war and of course Blair. It's pretty obvious to anyone who reads anything about the Scotland's First Minister that he has to check with Blair before he can have an opinion on anything. Of course this is only right, as Blair takes his advice, as he did when sending the troops to Iraq, from God. Apparently God gave Tony the go ahead to go to war. Good deflection of blame there Tone, I hope for your sake their isn't a God or else, you got some explaining to do.

Next up on McConnell's agenda is his backing of plans to keep nuclear warheads in the U.K. once again backing Blair to the hilt. But on a more positive note he welcomes the decision to reduce the U.K.'s warhead figures by 20%.
