Coleman is going to "refresh" Galloway's memory

[kabar]

This is true. The US gave waviers to Turkey and Jordan to continue buying oil from Iraq outside the Oil for Food program. It was US policy in the Clinton and GWB administrations

[tjwmason]

Now (for me) Galloway cites the Telegraph documents and I'm sure he's going to point out he won his libel suit. A suit the Telegraph is fighting back on.

It is also worth noting that Galloway's cases in the libel trial made no reference to whether the documents were genuine or not - their validity has never been tested in court.

CNN is playing the hearings again!

Asman "will continue to monitor" .........means HE decides what we will hear.

Galloway: "This is the mother of all smokescreen"

Cites HALLIBURTON

[Useless_eater_on_steroids]

MSNBC, FOX, and RealPlayer all cut in in the middle of Colemans case. Hopefully CSPAN will ahve uninterupted coverage of the hearing.

Anti-Iraqi war monologue = as per David on Fox...lol.

Bangor, Maine = flight diverted, and now a commercial. Geeeez.

[TFine80]

And a lunatic Anti-Semite...

What does AIPAC have to do with anything?

[Mo1]

Now Galloway is bringing in Israel into it

[auboy]

CNN and MSNBC are cutting away. too. All let this SOB's spiel be carried in full, then cut away when Coleman started his line of questions.

[pitinkie]
