So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye, Galloway!

GallowayleotardGeorge Galloway, who hoped to use reality TV as a platform to further his socialist ideology but instead used it as a platform to act like a cat and dance in a red leotard, has been voted out of the Celebrity Big Brother house!! From the Guardian:

"George Galloway tonight became the fourth person to be evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house as he admitted he had failed in his aims during almost two weeks of reality TV.

The Respect MP attracted 64.7% of public vote after being nominated alongside fake celebrity Chantelle Houghton and US basketball star Dennis Rodman.

He showed little emotion as his eviction was announced by presenter Davina McCall. He hugged, kissed and shook hands with the other housemates before making for the door.

As he emerged from the house, a smiling Galloway was met with boos and cheers from the crowd who gathered for tonight's double eviction.

Donned in a smart black suit and shirt, the 51-year-old MP for Bethnal Green and Bow constituency told McCall: 'That was my last election and I lost it so hey. I thought I could get on with almost everybody, Tony Blair excepted, but I certainly could not', he said.

'I thought I could bring people together in a common cause and I failed. I thought I could live without the news and I could not. So I did learn things about myself. I also learnt some personal things', he added, though he declined to elaborate."

Oh, we know what he learned. Meow.

"Asked why he thought he had been voted out by viewers, Mr Galloway said: 'I don't know. That depends on who is watching the show. Maybe people want me back on the road, which is what I am usually doing; travelling the country speaking to 500 people. I figured it was worth trying to speak to 5 million people every night.'"

Voted out because people wanted him back? Boy, is he delusional. It's highly apparent why he and the Husseins got along so swimmingly. Wait till he finds out that his beloved constituents were protesting outside his office or slapping fatwas on him!

UPDATE: Welcome to National Review Online, Instapundit and Wonkette readers! We wouldn't vote any of you off.
