Webb

It's probably worth just having a permanent link to Justin Webb's blog on this site, but even so I found his latest effort surprising:

Credit to the House Republicans: they fight for what they believe in. But John McCain - what does he stand for? Does he back the party rebels or the president - he won't say. As things stand, he stands for not debating.I stand to be corrected (as usual) but I cannot believe the American people are sitting back and saying, "Good show, John."

Apparently what's upset Webb is the "mind boggling contempt" that's been shown to George Bush. Really.

A quick reminder of those editorial guidelinesOur audiences should not be able to tell from BBC programmes or other BBC output the personal views of our journalists and presenters on [controversial] matters.
