How Long Can Bush Ignore the Changing Political Landscape?

Britain's New Leader Names Cabinet Team June 28, 2007 - 7:34am By DAVID STRINGER Associated Press Writer LONDON (AP) - Britain's new leader chose his senior circle of ministers on Thursday, picking David Miliband, the youngest foreign secretary in decades and a rising star who voiced doubts over the Iraq war.

One has to start wondering, especially if he is the President of the United States, how much longer he can continue alone among the world leaders. With Blair no longer in office and the new Prime Minister of Great Britain moving rapidly to show he is not a stooge of the United States, the questions about how the US can continue to press their bizarre world agenda begin to become more and more.

Iraq is only one of two countries that the US is embroiled in, as well as a rapidly declining world view of the US (not that it was all that great to begin with). President Bush has the opportunity to set a real legacy here. Unfortunately, I am afraid that the legacy he will leave behind is one of disharmony and disunion and disillusionment. One that I suspect will take generations to repair, both at home and abroad.
