"Mr Opik calls on Tony Blair to discuss the matter urgently with George
Bush - a naive plan, it seems to me, since it's 75,000-1 against Bush
knowing the difference between an asteroid and a haemorrhoid ("Tony, is
that one of them lumpy things you find on Uranus?")."

Well, Bush can't speak and you can't spell, so it appears to me you're both in the same boat.

Despite your poor grammar, I'll answer this from a moderate point of view. The answer is that the vast majority (not all) of politicians in the highest echelons of office are not the greatest leaders because they have been literally robots for much of their careers.
A true leader will never be President of the US nowadays because real leaders take risks and they know that people will be angry at the risks they take (so in a way I am defending Bush). From the start of our nation until a few decades ago, we elected people for how they lead, not as much for how loyal they are to their constituents.

Bush is an idiot. Blair is in a quandary. The UK's best interests are to associate with the US even if he does not agree with things. I think this is what Blair has done, too bad there is an idiot at the whitehouse.

Wasn't the original ?? why are Bush & Blair idiots? Because they did not forsee the British or American peope finding out they started a war under false pretenses.

You say: Why IS Bush and Blair....and you call them idiots???? Perhaps not knowing your singulars from your plurals makes you a genius? (Let alone taking The Mirror at it's word.)

It seems to me that someone else here is the real "idiot." Re-read your question..."why IS bush and blair idiots???" If you are talking about 2 people, you use ARE.

I think you is an idiot and a hammeroid. If you are going to call other people idiots, at least learn to write a coherent and correctly spelled question.

You should get down on your knees and Blow our beloved President for keeping us safe from terrorists that have a hobby of slicing off Americans heads. Dope.

they maybe idiots my friend, but their rich parents raised them this way by doing everything for them and giving them everything, and their immense power and money helps them live in a small minded elite little world far removed from our reality, kinda like the modern day marie antoinettes-let them eat cake!

i assume the bush is an idiot due to alcohol and cocaine abuse, and maybe a little inbreeding, why he is president of the usa is another matter, i assume that it is because he is representative of most of the population here.
