LONDON -- Jane Fonda will join George Galloway, the most radical member of the British parliament, on a tour of the United States to accuse the Bush administration of spending money on Iraq that should be spent to help the poor of New Orleans.
The argument, likely to offend many Americans, follows British newspaper and television coverage of Hurricane Katrina that focused on the bungled handling of the aftermath of the storm.
Mr. Galloway, a passionate supporter of anti-Western causes in the Arab world, has been sneered at in Parliament as the "member for Baghdad" because of his regular trips there before the U.S.-led invasion.
He also has been accused of receiving allocations to buy and sell 20 million barrels of Iraqi oil, a charge he has strongly denied.
Miss Fonda was persuaded to join Mr. Galloway's eight-city traveling show later this month by a friend, Eve Ensler, author of "The Vagina Monologues." Mrs. Ensler had been impressed by Mr. Galloway's pugnacious performance in May in front of a Senate committee investigating the U.N. oil-for-food scandal, the London Sunday Times reported.
At the hearing, Mr. Galloway, just re-elected after a fiercely fought campaign exploiting Muslim anti-war sentiment, described the accusations against him as "the mother of all smoke screens" and said they were aimed at diverting attention from America's role in the war and its aftermath.
Chris Dols, an organizer of the U.S. tour, said, "Jane Fonda and George Galloway will point out how much money is being wasted on the war when it is needed to help people at home."

Jane, you ignorant slut....
Why doesn't Fonda just go down there and help with the relief effort and shut up.?And how about she petitions all her radical friends in Hollywood for some good ole fashioned cash for the relief effort? Surely Hollywood alone could come up with $200,000,000.
Rove has to be behind this one!
Oh goody! I do hope there will be popcorn!
I despised her when I was over there back then, and I despise her today over here.
I guess Galloway is tired of making trouble in his own country so now he wants to make trouble in ours.
Why is a Brit touring our country telling us how our money should be spent?
What is it about these radicals, if they don't like it then leave and go live elsehwhere. I'd like to see some deranged person kidnap her and torture her with what they went through and make sure she never open that mouth of hers. It's amazing how these people get away with what they do. Maybe they should go to Cuba or China and lets see how far they get. They certainly wouldn't have the MSM over there.
Wouldn't it be a shame if George was caught at JFK with
10 kilos of cocaine,an illegal handgun and 5 million Yuan
that he failed to declare?
jane FONDLE must have run out of threesomes and is in desprate need for a new beau.Good match.
Hmmmm.....I like it!! I am beginning to get into this protest thing. ;*)
