Bush and Brown spin the sanctions

It might have seemed like some late-in-the-game diplomatic coup for our lame, lame-duck President, but apparently the announcement of sanctions against Iran were something already negotiated by the EU, without the urging of Bush.

I guess Gordon Brown has taken on the mantle of Tony Blair as Bush's favorite English lapdog.

And the American press who are swallowing the bait provided by the White House propaganda machine without any followup? Shame piled upon shame.
