I like him. friendly, jovial... the sort of guy i would pop a top with.
he seemed like a genuine person... his interview here (
) is pretty much what its like to sit with him for 10 or 15 minutes.
say what you will about him as a president, i always liked him because i was able to sort of look at him as "just a guy"

Blair said the same thing that Bush was a man who would call a spade a spade. I mean, I ripped into the guy during his presidency and some of the things he did still make me shake my head, but his quick talk to the cameras at the G8 summit at Gleneagles as news broke of the 7/7 attacks, well, it made me glad to have the US as a friend and his words were genuinely heartfelt.
For my dues, I was talking to Joe Pasquale the other day, and I've also met Jay Kay and Jarvis Cocker whilst at work.
