Lou Dobbs is interviewing Rep Coleman (Brit Galloway ripped him a new one)
in just a few minutes on CNN. George Galloway was just interviewed by Wolf on CNN. Here is a Bloomberg article about Galloway ripping the Senate Committee earlier this morning.

Galloway Calls U.S. Accusation a Diversion From Iraq May 17 -- British lawmaker George Galloway told a U.S. Senate panel today he didn't receive ``one thin dime''

<snip> and that senators had created ``the mother of all smokescreens'' by accusing him of wrongdoing.

``I have never seen a barrel of oil, bought one, sold one, and neither has anyone on my behalf,'' Galloway told the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, led by Senator Norm Coleman, a Minnesota Republican. The panel accused Galloway in a report last week of profiting from the sale of Iraqi oil.


~~~~~~Mr. Galloway then threw out these ONE LINERS!!!!

``In everything I said about Iraq I turned out to be right and you turned out to be wrong,'' Galloway said, as Coleman and other senators listened.

Galloway said that ``if the world had listened'' to him and others such as UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan who opposed the Iraq war, ``we would not be in the disaster that we are in today.''

``The real sanctions-busters were your own companies with the connivance of your own government,'' Galloway said.

3. Yes he is a weasel
But old Lou will give him a pass and let him spew his lies, and then go on to how Galloway didn't show the proper deference to the Senate
Committee on Frame the Thorne in Blair's side.

7. You are 100% right on..........what state is he from?
Everytime Colemen is in the news......DU needs to dump on him!! Galloway had Coleman by the short hairs. Every news segment I saw last night.....showed Galloway winning by a KNOCK-OUT.
