Forgive my ignorance, but I don't quite understand. I don't really watch any TV news other than the CBC and BBC, but I missed both today.

I don't really know who he is or his position. I gather he's anti war, and hes saying the comittie is trying to peg him as having accepted oil vouchers from Iraq? Is the senate comittie not made up of senators from the British government? Is the british government not taking oil vouchers? I'm pretty sure the Italians accepted oil. See here:

and i'm sure the Americans are taking oil.

So is the senate comittie trying to take the heat of themselves and blame it on someone else?

Or am I totally reading this wrong?
