That video is hilarious!

Even the soundtrack is priceless.

Galloway can't possibly survive this ... unless the UK has completely lost its way.

Galloway is a thug and a freak.

Deport him to Kitty Land and take away his Oil for Food money.

How perfect. Galloway as a contestant on an idiotic "reality" show.

I always thought Galloway was a sado-masochist - why else would he like the Baath Party and Islam?
