The Fall Guy

There's still some good stuff in the Independent thought. Mark Steel's latest offering is spot on and very funny.

Johann Hari's article about an American right-wing magazine's cruise was absolutely hilarious - and frightening:

There should really be a massive investigation of the Iraq disaster from all sides - from Halliburton and other companies massively overcharging the government, to falsified intelligence reports which paved the way for the war, to mercenaries and contractors exposed to extremely dangerous situations for often very low pay, to faulty bulletproof vests and defective armored vehicles which have led to many troops dying or receiving serious injuries which better equipment would have prevented.

I don't know enough about Galloway specifically to make a judgment.
