Subject: RE: BS: Galloway tears them to shreds
Careful, Bill D! ...and whether his company and thus, causes he supports, made money from slightly illegal dealings

Mr G put it far more forcefuly and eloquently than I ever could but, in a nutshell, he does not have and never had has a company other than a minor holding company he uses for the money earned by his writing. That one has never earned any money from anything other than his literary work. This is verifiable and undisputable. It is points like that that made the senators wince and, I guess, wish they had never listened to heresay let alone report it as fact!

I first heard George on the radio rallying against armed intervention and he knocked his protagonists into a cocked hat then. He was very clearly as much against Sadam Hussein as he was against the war and when one of the other contenders tried to label him as a lover of Sadam and his works he wiped the floor with him!

Much as I dislike politicians of all ilks at least Mr Galloway does give a straight answer with a power of conviction unseen in most of the wimps in government! He also provides an exceedingly good line in entertaining argument:-)
