Put an end to popups!

I'm watching this right now and Gallowayis hammering Coleman on point after point after point.The Republican is really looking like a fool especially since much of the "new reports" Coleman relied upon in his attacks on Galloway have been proven to be fakes and retracted by the papers which originally published them.

Shouldn't Coleman have checked to see if the information in the newspaper articles had been retracted by the papers before he started making accussations about people? This is so funny to watch the neo-con house of cards fall down.

It's a dumb idea to pick on any British politician, even a polite man like Robin Cook, but Galloway is a firebrand and a professional grandstander.

Repugs pwned.

Oh God... this is such a ***** slapping.

Every time the senator asks Galloway to prove some point, Galloway proves it and a bigger one to boot that makes the senator look like a ****.

Uncomfortable silence from the bench.

Mr Galloway went on the offensive as soon as he began to speak, saying he had met Saddam Hussein on two occasions - the same number of times as US Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld.

"The difference is Donald Rumsfeld met him to sell him guns and maps - the better to target those guns. I met him to try to bring about an end to sanctions, suffering and war," he said.

The accusations levelled against him was the "mother of all smokescreens", he said.

God damn it they've all switched off to that false alarm on the airline "do not fly" list. Well, everyone but Faux News who suddenly decided to show everyone the weather instead of continuing to carry the ***** slapping Coleman's been getting. I guess they didn't want to make their boy look even stupidier then he already is since Faux News has been pumping this oil for food thing for two years now.

That's it, he's been excused.

I don't think that choosing to invite him to address the committee will go down as a good idea.

It's funny how fast they went to recess; it couldn't have been more then 10-15 minutes of testimony before the repugs decided to retreat and call it a day. All this build up for 10-15 minutes of them getting their asses kicked.
