Still No Transcript of Galloway Testimony on Senate Subcommittee Website!
Though New Excuses For Not Posting It Available Every Day!
As we previously reported, the U.S. Senate Subcommittee has made the testimony of all witnesses from last week's hearings on the U.N. Oil-for-Food "scandal" available on their website .
All witnesses, that is, except for the stunning testimony given by British MP George Galloway, who tore Senator Norm Coleman (and the Bush Administration in general) a new one for their McCarthy-like witch hunt to distract from the Administration's devastatingly failed and dishonest Iraq policy. Galloway called the hearings and the trumped-up scandal "the mother of all smoke-screens".
As we reported originally, Coleman's office passed the buck for the absense of Galloway's testimony on the website by telling The BRAD BLOG that, "Senator Coleman is the chairman, but the committee makes their own decisions about what goes on the website."
Our calls to "the committee" have yet to be returned, yet the website has now been updated at least twice with pathetic explanations.
The first update, just after our original article on the missing Galloway testimony, informed us that: "Mr Galloway did not submit a statement".
A later update, currently available on the site, explains that (emphasis ours): "Mr Galloway did not submit a written statement".
As a public service to the U.S. Senate subcommittee on Investigations whose transcribers are either very slow, or very inept when it comes to copying and pasting, and to the future ex-Senator Norm Coleman who has no say about what goes on his own committee's website....Galloway's Testimony has been available on this London Times page for nearly a week.
Video from portions of that testimony is available via this previous article .
Norm Coleman's office can be reached at 202-224-5641 if you have any questions or wish to leave a message for "the committee" since there is no phone number online for "the committee". Hopefully the chairman of that "committee" can help you.
