You tell em Gorgeous George
He's not known as Gorgeous George for nothing.
Like him or not,he takes no shit off anybody. Blair is scared stiff of him. "He said that Coleman's panel based some of its accusations on the same fake documents used by The Daily Telegraph newspaper, which he sued for libel and won a $1.4 million libel judgment" http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireS...C-RSSFeeds0312 http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2005/s1371258.htm http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4557717.stm http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/news...A-GALLOWAY.xml I recommend a good google,he's quite a guy. If Arnie gets to run for Pres,here's the guy to fight him. |
glad you brought that up, Mal....i gotta like this guy, for no other reason than he sat in front of the Senate and essentially told them to f@#ck off.

You've no doubt seen the smut video with your new idol, his head wrapped in a tablecloth, hugging and praising Saddam, and receiving his gooey reward: Iraqi oil, which he laundered and used to fund his pro-Saddam political organization. But still you find him appealing, maybe even more so with Saddam's manly mass murderer smell on him. You need to have more respect for yourself. You can do better than this. |

Now just where did I say the war was so great? Or even mention it in this thread?
But from all the squawking and squealing you've been doing about it you'd think Bush forced you into the front lines in Iraq and you were constantly terrified you could die any time. But this doesn't address my post that you quoted at all; why you're falling in with Saddam's old bitch? Any sleazebag to help your cause no matter how disgusting huh? |

You guess at everything don't you? No ability to learn and understand.
I got my honorable discharge after 6 years of service and a combat service ribbon as well. What do you have? Not even the balls to address my posts. Duck and blow smoke. Seems you're practicing the tactics your new hero accuses others of. |

He was thrown out of the Labour party for his anti war statements and his slaging off of Blair.Stood as an independent as a member of some fringe party "Respect".And won.This disturbs Blair because he stood on a pro muslin anti war platform.In most debates his recall of facts and delivery make him a formidable debater.On election night he wiped the floor with the BBC interviewer.Who had an agenda against him. I watched when I came in from work late, four in the morning. There was nothing in the press the following day I think he's always been a bit pain in the backside towards the press and media. They used to hate him. After this hearing the press have warmed to him.Anyone who hates America gets good press here.Except the right wing press,they don't know what to say.They hate blair as well. All good fun I think. He's very charismatic thence the nick name "Gorgeous George" When I watched the video I thought of Oliver North.If you do the wrong thing but look good you can get away with it. Whether or not he's done the wrong thing we'll see. It will take some proofing,I suspect after his performance the yanks will leave him alone.Not many f..k with George and come out looking good. Do a google and read up on his background,he's quite a hero to his fans. He's Mr bad guy to lot of others because he won't bow down to anyone. When he met Saddam years ago the press went nuts. But far from "praising Saddam" He's on record doing nothing but slag him off for years,right back to the early eighties. He might well have "some skeletons in his closet"but our press haven't found them,and after the libel win I doubt they'll print without cast iron proof. |

He was originally part of the far-left wing of the Labour party and he gradually became more and more isolated during the early Blair-ite years. His libel case with the Telegraph pretty much sealed his party political fate as he was forced/coerced/jumped out of the party. It kinda worked out well for him, giving him the high-profile legal/political platform he relishes - especially when it gives him the opportunity to bash the establishment... to be honest, I'm surprised the Senate dared to accuse him on such flimsy evidence, let alone give him a seat at the table. I think everyone in Britain, having heard he'd be appearing in the Senate, was wryly grinning and having a quiet little laugh to themselves. We all know what George is like and the sort of shit he enjoys to stir up... when I heard he's been offered a hearing, I actually laughed out loud. For some time, I actually entertained the idea that Blair's memo to Bush, reading: "for fuck's sake, don't let him past customs", had got stuck in the fax machine or something. Actually, by Galloway's standards, he was pretty restrained and almost polite. He worked his ass off on the anti-war movement and was one of the few politicians to effectively tackle, point-by-point, the reasons for war given by the Bush-Blair coalition. As for how he's regarded, the right wingers understandably hate him, the anti-war movement types love him and - in my opinion - overlook his shortcomings. As for the far left... well, he is the far left! Or at least, he's the most vocal member. Personally, having met the man on a number of occasions and spoken to him about the Iraq war, I'm honestly undecided about him. I suspect he's got as many skeletons in his closet as any other politician with an ego, but I don't believe for a second that he was a Hussain asset. Chances are, the then Iraqi administration regarded him as a useful tool (considering he was campaigning for an end to sanctions), but I doubt he was anything more than a passing interest. If you wish to find out more about British politicians and a their genuine support for Hussain, read the related information around the Scott Report. |
Here you go knife, buy his book, everything he stands for in his own words.
http://enjoyment.independent.co.uk/b...p?story=520943 Sorry malva, I know how much uniforms turn your kind on but no pics for you.:no: |
thanks for the input, Mal & T-Man....
far-left or not, it was really refreshing to watch somebody sit in front of the US Senate and take no shit whatsoever. the C-Span video showed an articulate, brutally frank guy who refused to be steamrollered - whatever his politics, his performance was admirable. |

Does it still fit? Bet the hat doesn't. Honestly mate, I would like to see a picture of your medal. With you wearing it proudly. So you should if it's won with courage Despite what you might think,I don't hate the army or the men who serve their country.I have nothing but admiration for you all. I'm not against the war either. My view on it all is,They've got the oil we want it,we need it,let's have it. We meaning the west are bigger and stronger so we're having it. We've been fighting Muslims for hundreds of years no change there. Oh by the way did you watch the video or did you fall asleep again? You really should get your rest. Your getting terribly grouchy in you old age |
And to think they would try and blame George.
Have you Yanks no shame. Not only do you shoot your own troupes. You love shooting yourself in the foot. Dear oh dear more to be pitied than laughed at. http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/story?id=2...C-RSSFeeds0312 |
