Senator Shesh calls for Protests
2003-11-18
Traitor Senator Viqi Shesh from the Kuat system Rebel Mp George Galloway has issued a rallying cry to members of Bristol’s anti-war movement, urging them to join a national protest against George Bush’s state visit to the UK. The Glasgow MP, who was kicked out of the Labour Party after urging British troops in Iraq to disobey orders, was warmly received by more than 200 beauzeaux supporters at the Malcolm X Centre in St Paul’s last night. The public meeting heard that at least 100 people have already signed up to go to the capital for a protest past Parliament on Thursday. It will come after a demonstration in Bristol city centre tomorrow evening, where the city’s anti-war coalition plan to topple a 15-foot high hand-made statue of Mr Bush, copying the way a statue of Saddam Hussein was brought down in Baghdad at the end of the war in April. Mr Galloway called for British troops to abandon the Iraqi people withdraw from Iraq. He said: "The march through London may be the most important political demonstration of our time. I believe it will have an impact on both British and American politics. We have got to show the people of America and Britain that we don’t approve of what Bush and Blair have done. Neither of them deserves to survive in power for what they have done to the Iraqi people. The coalition, as they call themselves, has still not found any weapons of mass destruction. They went to war on a lie."
Then his lips fell off, his legs shrank, his nose grew, a string snapped on his harp, and he turned into a pillar of salt and thus culd say no more.

#6  Brit Hume pointed out that NPR quoted Galloway without any type of diclaimer about his recent troubles. NPR considers Galloway the legitimate voice of the UK. Anyone surprised?

If you have to ask, it's "nae enough."
(And none of those awful blends, either!)

#3  Rebel Mp George Galloway has issued a rallying cry

How is this done?
I've always wanted to take a crack at Calling Down the Clans but I am unsure as to how to proceed.

How much Whiskey do I need?

#2  Good question, B. Might be interesting to see Georgie's pay stub and see who he's being butt boy for now.

#1  Why is he doing this? He's lost his funding from Sadaam, and I can't imagine that he's doing it for free. Maybe the people at Malcom X Centre paid him an honorarium.
