Exclusive -- what they're all currently thinking

An exclusive to this site.

An insight into the mind of a typical member of the blogosphere right-wing.

"Mmmm...even the Spectator is now calling Iraq a 'quagmire'. And it's saying that the British are very angry with the Americans. Oh dear. Do I support the Americans or the British? I am British, but I really prefer America and all its shiny weapons. And its belief in freedom. Oh well I'll rubbish the story. But I can't blame this one on BBC bias, or even liberal media bias. It's Boris's organ after all, and he's one of us. Shall I say 'oh it's only Max Hastings -- a notorious Americanphobe? Well here goes ... 'Old pinko yellow Maxy, the famous ex-editor of the Daily Telegraph and celebrated war correspondent' -- no, doesn't quite sound right either. Who else can I blame? I could blame a fifth-column at home. Yet Johann tried that last week and it sounded a bit desperate then. What about the French? Not really -- last week I was attacking them for not taking part. Oh well time for the usual then -- hands over ears, close your eyes and repeat after me, "September 11th, September 11th, September 11th, September 11th, September 11th, September 11th"
