Even cynics must have been impressed with George's impressive performnce in the US Senate last week ("lickspittle Republican committee" that was engaged in creating "the mother of all smokescreens").
It was a brief stay in the US, because he was in Ednburgh for BBC1's Question Time on Thursday.
An interesting piece on Galloway's political oratory on BBC 4's Broadcasting House programme last Sunday (not sure if it's available as 'listen again').

George Galloway on Question Time last week:
"I hope they'll [G8 protesters] will be there in their hundreds of thousands because some of the most desperate criminals in the world will be at Gleneagles.... They'll be responsible for setting the world on fire, for disfiguring the international legal and political face of this world, making it a more dangerous place. They'll be responsible for the despoilation of the environment through their economic system based on exploitation... and we should be there in numbers. I appeal to people now. Book your coaches, book your trains, we're all going to Gleneagles - as close as we can get"
