Britain's George Galloway, a former member of the House of Commons, is running for mayor of London. Before you yawn and move to another post watch how Galloway handled a U.S. Senate committee hearing in 2005, when he was unjustly accused of profiting from the war in Iraq. It's a real smack down.
Galloway calls out then Senator Norm Coleman (R-MN) on his committee's 'oil-for-food' charges against him, referring to the claims as "The Mother of All Smokescreens." Galloway is calling out Sen. Coleman and his colleagues for going after him in an effort to distract from the fact that the GOP and the Bush administration built their case for war on a "pack of lies."
If you want to watch the entire Senate hearing with Galloway - and it's worth it - click here (the money quote from this YouTube clip begins at 20:39).
In all cases, London's race for mayor in 2016 promises to be fun to watch.
