I just watched George Galloway's full testimony on BBC's webby..

[enigmatic]

I know this has been talked to death......but damn, he was like Mike Tyson destroying Michael Spinks; it was amazing to see. Norm Coleman had to ajourn to go change his pants...

[brainshrub]

1. The sphincter muscles of those Senators must have been tight today!

ON EDIT: I wish the camera captured the looks on their faces.

To use some cyber-vernacular: Galloway pwned them.

[enigmatic]

2. yep...

That was the only disappointment; I can't believe they didn't have a split-screen to show Coleman's face drained of blood...

[alittlelark]

3. Coleman was SERVED!!!!!

[libodem]

4. Someone is speaking the truth,

finally someone is stepping up to the plate.

5. Honestly, they had nothing on the guy.

He accepted contributions from the oil guy for a charity, that was it.
They seemed to want him to beg for forgiveness for that. Too bad for them he doesn't work for Newsweek.

6. I still have fifteen minutes of video left to watch.

Hopefully I can wrap it up tomorrow.

(BTW you're too generous in describing Coleman as Spinks. Or did Spinks really suck that badly?)

Hey, when is it Coleman's turn for Galloway to grill HIM?

[enigmatic]

12. Spinks sucked that badly...

Tyson destroyed in about 30 seconds of the 1st round of their heavyweight fight; it was unbelieveable..

[tuvor]

15. As I recall I was too busy at the time

moving into my first apartment, preparing for my first "real" job.

I'll take your word for it. :)

7. Is there a link?

Is the video online somewhere? My c-span search turned up nothing.

[enigmatic]

8. It's on BBC's website...

Give me a sec and I'll get the link..

10. Here you go:

9. Try this.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/nolavconsole/shared/player/player.stm?title=Galloway%20delivers%20blistering%20attack%20on%20US%20Senate&clipurl=http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/news_web/video/9012da68000cfe0/nb/09012da68000d153_nb_16x9!asx&cs=news

It gets really good after the first five or six minutes, when the monotonous Coleman is finally finished.

11. Thanks!

13. I love the first woman in the background

that was smiling real big when galloway started talking.

[enigmatic]

14. I think she had to get up to leave so quickly...

because she was ready to start laughing her ass off!

[tjwmason]

16. OnLy a totaL fooL wouLd take on somebody trained in the twin schooLs

Of inner city Dundee and the House of Commons. The Senate is shockinLy tame compared with ParLiament.

[Boo Boo]

17. So true.

I'm lookin' at Galloway, and he looks like a tough-guy---the kind that doesn't mind coming home from the pub with a bloody nose. Coleman better steer clear, what with all that expensive dental work.

[peekaloo]

18. Haha. I watched part of it on BBC America and the anchor said

Coleman appeared "shattered" afterwards. :bounce:

They (BBC) then proceeded to interview some Jr. Nazi who used to work for the WH in some capacity who trashed Galloway for a good 5 minutes, saying he was in "big trouble".

[progressoid]

19. I saw Coleman on Hardball and he was still a weasel

He could give a direct answer to any questions. What a dick.

A weasel dick.
