Blair's boy gets job with David Dreier (R) on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Why isn't this a surprise and why am I surprised at the "in your face" arrogance?

THE Prime Minister's son, Euan Blair, has beaten around 100,000 hopefuls to secure an internship with a Republican congressman who is accused by gay rights campaigners of leading a double life.

Euan is to work for David Dreier on Capitol Hill in Washington.

The coveted intern posts often go to the most academically gifted, but connections are equally important. For a foreigner to be given an internship is highly unusual as the roles often go to graduates from the congressman's local district.

Euan, an ancient history graduate of Bristol University, has expressed an interest in entering politics and was a keen observer of the general election.

Downing Street confirmed the British embassy was involved in setting up the internship "for obvious security reasons".

4. Well, that should rip out any shred of decency the lad has left.
Drier is a punk of the worst sort.
