Galloway spins begins .. AP story posted
the ONLY quotes AP uses of Galloway is the following

"I am not now nor have I ever been an oil trader and neither has anyone on my behalf," Galloway said. "I was an opponent of Saddam Hussein when British and American governments and businessmen were selling him guns and gas."

"I gave my heart and soul to stop you from committing the disaster that you did commit in invading Iraq," Galloway said. "And I told the world that the case for war was a pack of lies."

3. Gutless SOBs......
They picked (or more appropriately CHERRY-PICKED) the most bland comments he made. God help us if the rest of the country heard him speak THE TRUTH!!!.

5. Reuter's lead has been totally whitewashed on Yahoo
It's almost like it was written before he began to speak. Certainly wasn't written by anyone concerned with what ACTUALLY happened.

8. CNN had reporter give quick Galloway account....
Spin...Spin...Spin....Nothing the spin reporter said were George Galloway's words. It's like again listening to what the spinners did to Clarke and others who said the truth about little bush.

Wah'O...our country is a big foking mess.
