Mighty George
I got this link (via Sylvane) yesterday and I’ve watched it like 10 times now. Every time I watch political debates/interviews I always find it extremely frustrating because the people are not talking about the real issues here, they’re smoke screened out. The ‘objective’ journalism is lost. In this interview George Galloway rips Anne (I have no idea what her full name is nor do I care) a new asshole as he COMPLETELY destroys her.
It’s really funny because these ‘journalists’ have got pointed questions that are meant to phase the interviewee. You can see it very clearly. The questions are meant to illicit discomfort and many who are not apt in their expressions will fumble. In this interview George not only slaps everything she says but he puts her on the back foot at every single stage. You can even hear the rustle of the paper as she’s trying desperately to read off the next ‘pointed’ questions.
What’s interesting is the fact that the mere mention of his name provides polarised views instantly. I mentioned his name several times yesterday and got anything from quiet disapproval, to cheers, to claims he’s the best MP Britain has at the moment, to ‘isn’t’ he that guy from Big Brother'. He reminds me of Michael Moore in that respect. You can definitely put me in the camp of people that rate him, because he was able to put in a 10 minute interview what hasn’t been said by anyone in 27 days.
