So this is what you get after a hard day of baiting the U.S., grinding up people who looked at you funny, checking to make sure your kid is still raping the nation's girls, and - if there is a spare moment - looking through this year's Chirac & Putin Ltd. ramadan wish book... a Scottish Labour MP puts the touch on you. Such cheek!
To: Shermy
The MP has told this newspaper that the meeting did not take place but said he did
spend one Christmas in Iraq, but could not be sure which one.
Must have been one heck of an XMAS holiday, partying with Uday and all his
stable of babes!
I suspect that would have been enough to rattle my recall of time!

Imagine how much our own Criminal Class in D.C. must pull down from assorted brigands and knaves. We'll have to capture a few Columbian drug lords' villas to find out. I'm sure they find the Galloway example worrisome.
To: MEG33
How about memos discussing requests from Tom Daschle, Hillary Clinton, Bonior, Sheets Byrd, and a litigation-shakedonw notice,
from John Edwards of course?
To: Shermy
Saddam Hussein rejected a request from George Galloway for more money, saying that the Labour backbencher's "exceptional" demands were not affordable... Yeah, it was cutting into Saddam's budget for Scott Ritter payoffs.

It's all the fault of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy out to get Galloway. BTW, I really want to know which Americans were also on Saddam's payroll.

So was Mohammed Said al-Sahaf, then foreign minister, who was later nicknamed "Comical Ali" when he served as the ever-optimistic information minister. So Baghdad Bob was apparently involved in some important decisions.
To: Ronin
I have a personal suspect list myself. It will be interesting to see what happens. Chirac, his family and a host of related business entities are tops on my list. I wonder whether we've already found such documents, and are beginning to use them "creatively."
(In a completely unrelated matter, the French have suddenly decided that sanctions restraining Iraqi oil production aren't such a good idea any more).
To: Shermy
Mr Galloway denies receiving any money from the regime. He claims that any documents purporting to show this are forgeries planted by western intelligence agencies to try to discredit him. Hmmmmmm....how did western intelligence agencies come to pick Galloway? Did they do the eenie-meenie-miney-mo thing? Did they pick his name out of a hat? Did they throw darts at a poster of Parliament? Flip through the phone book and randomly jam a finger down?
To: Ancesthntr
The list of Saddam's paid whores, will read like a Who's Who in "Old Europe" and the Middle East....
I would NOT be surprised to see a number of DNC whores included.....

To: Texas Eagle
Your list is FAR too short..
Mine would incluce a number of congress critters (black and white --- male and female) -- who have VERY vocally pushed the Islamist bullshit line...
Being an old man, I pray I live long enough to see the Democrat Party fully revealed and acknowledged as the "enemy within", as I have believed them to be for the past 30 years...

So Baghdad Bob was apparently involved in some important decisions.Yes, indeed.
Eric Shawn on Fox has been reporting for two days that he has found documents showing how some of the "Oil for Food" money was spent. Naturally it was NOT on food or medicine for regular Iraqi citizens.
Among the expenditures were sizable amounts directly to Baghdad Bob, (and Shawn just cuts to the chase and refers to him as such in his on camera reports), in the form of cash and media items. Including cartoon making equipment which Shawn surmised would be put to use making propaganda cartoons.

I trust that the nice folks at Inland Revenue are carefully going over Mr. Galloway's income tax returns again...
