The Back Room

Welcome to The Back Room! Step in, read, write and link with other sites that focus on the Bush Administration, their lies and our demand for the truth. The Back Room was created over many dinners, glasses of wine and "pints" of frustration over where our country is headed. We need more voices, your voices,to help us uncover and reclaim our democracy.

The Debate Continues


Throughout the month of September, George Galloway, MP (Member of Parliament) will be travelling across the U.S. on a tour of his book, Mr. Galloway Goes to Washington. To promote his work, written in response to accusations of bribery and collusion with Saddam made against him by the U.S. government. This tour is about discussion and debate of the Iraq war made open to the public. If you find that he will be coming to your area, please attend and take a friend.
