I’d say “its about time” but we aren’t much better at bringing our public scoundrels to justice quickly.

.. the Committee recommends that he be suspended from the House of Commons for eighteen working days – which is reportedly “one of the most severe [penalties] given to an MP” – and requests that he apologize for his misconduct.

if the report is accurate, 18 days suspension is a joke.

Not bad, but if Galloway were conservative I'm sure they'd have shot him.

Another story our MSM won’t cover because of the implications.

Tim Russert and Larry King should demand he show up on MTP and CNN and explain things.

‘Tim Russert and Larry King should demand he show up on MTP and CNN and explain things.’

ROTFLMAO! Larry King probably doesn’t know about any of this, and Russert won’t do anything between now and November of 2008 that will hurt the political party he’s worked his entire adult life for incessantly.

You have a better chance of bin Laden converting to Catholicism.....

Suspend him from within the tower of london via a nice piece of rope.

I'd pay every nickel I have to be in the House when he gives his apology,assuming it's done there rather than in writing.

And also assuming that he issues one at all.

I dinstinctly recall that back in the day when this piece of garbage appeared before the Senate that even some Freepers were defending the guy, saying that nobody had anything on him.

I wonder if any of them will come out and apologize now.

Churchill would have had him shot.But then things have changed there since Sir Winston held power.
