I never had relations with the food for oil scandal!

Remember the truly obnoxious George Galloway, former Labour Party British MP, testifying before Congress with his deliberate indignant pronouncement of never having anything to do with the food for oil scandal? He was as adamant and sincere as Clinton's famous finger wagging denial of an affair with Lewinsky.

Now, it's looking like he is as good as an actor as Clinton was.

He is denying it of course. We shall see if the paper trail ends up being his blue dress.

UPDATE: A bit more information.

"But the report provides bank account details tracking payments from an oil company through a Jordanian middleman to Mr GallowayƂ’s now estranged wife, Amineh Abu- Zayyad, and his Mariam Appeal fund."

UPDATE 2: I just heard Christopher Hitchens reaction. The best quote:

Referring to Galloway as a -"Prostitute of Iraqi fascism."

Chris has a way with words, doesn't he?
