Blair makes cameo in bizarre Bush holiday video - starring Barney the White House dog
Political commentators thought the Bush and Blair show had died when Tony Blair stepped down as British prime minister earlier this year.
But you can't keep a good friendship down, and now the new Middle East envoy has made a cameo appearance in the U.S. president's bizarre annual Christmas "comedy" video - starring Barney the White House dog
There he is!: Former PM Tony Blair makes a cameo appearance in the video, telling Barney that it's always good to see the Scots going well
The decidedly odd video details Barney's quest to become a junior park ranger, as George and Laura Bush pontificate on the beauty and importance of American's national parks - and park rangers.
