Its a shame he relented and did congratulate Galloway though in the end

Did he? Looked like spitting sarcasm to me. Bloody silly question to ask, though, unless you were deliberately trying to stir up controversy.
Oh, and although it's been mentioned before, Gorgeous George met Saddam Hussein once, and famously saluted his indefatigability. Pretty reprehensible. Donald Rumsfeld, on the other hand, met him twice, and tried to flog him a pipeline deal with a U.S. company. Also pretty reprehensible. Damn George and you damn Rummy twice.
cookie thinks Galloway is an extreme right-winger? OK, whatever. And I personally consider it insulting to characterise Oona King as a 'Jewish woman', she's a highly effective and intelligent politician, who's perfectly capable of standing up for herself - that she failed to represent the views of her constituents is the decision that's cost her her seat.
Where's Blair stood up to terrorists? Inventing some and creating many more doesn't count as standing up, in my book. Stand up to George Bush and he might get some respect from me.
