James Wolcott: Empty Suit Politician (Coleman) Walks into Propellor
Based on what I saw on MSNBC (and congrats to them for going live), I would modestly venture that Norm Coleman and the Senate committee picked on the wrong guy when they picked on George Galloway (scroll down for "This Old Brit's"'s take Link at Wolcott's Blog). His rebuttal so exfoliated Coleman's short hairs that Fox News had to step in afterwards and downplay Galloway's rousing anti-Iraq war broadside as a rhetorical gambit.

a litte more...

2. Is the Iraq food for oil scandal
another ploy to make Clinton look bad? What's going on here? Wolcott says the Bush administration was responsible. Is he talking about the food for oil scandal before or after the Iraq War?

3. Before the Iraq war
The oil sales continued until 2002, long after Bush was made aware of them and the U.S.' role in approving the illegal transfers.


The one part we need to make everyone aware of is that the Repug controlled Congress turned a blind eye since 1996. The American U.N. Security Council members reported directly to the Senate Intelligence Committee, which had a Repug majority.
