I find it interesting how Jonathan Freedland uses the word “poodle” for any British friend of America, but especially Tony Blair. In Britain, the word “poodle” has come to mean for Americans (and particularly rural Americans) what the word “******lover” meant for black people during Jim Crow. In this context, the word “HOPE” gains a sinister edge, for the word “HOPE” is tagged to Barack Obama as if he were a latter day Jim Jeffries.
