Can we kick out Daschle, and some other Democrats, for the same reason?

Someone needs to post the "I'm deeply saddened" pic.

He's a British subject and an apparently ex-member of parliament. He may be a traitor to the Queen, but he certainly doesn't come under our jurisdiction.

I have read in another thread that he is being investigated for tax evasion, not for any political attacks. Tax evasion is the "low hanging fruit". If they can prove that he received this money and didn't report it, that's a slam dunk. As to the propriety of actually accepting the money, he should be tried and convicted of that in addition to tax evasion, with the sentences running consecutively. Give him 50 years to think about how he gained by helping Saddam. Then execute him for treason.

Who cares if the guy disagrees? Contest his assertions. The answer is not to silence the guy. Only those fearful of truth try to silent critics.

Gotta love Rooter's use of the word firebrand to describe George. Around my neck of the woods, we'd call a guy who takes money from an enemy of our nation a traitor...

"I think this Reuters headline may be a bit off. I have read in another thread that he is being investigated for tax evasion, not for any political attacks."
They got Al Capone for the same thing....

He's a British subject and an apparently ex-member of parliament. He may be a traitor to the Queen, but he certainly doesn't come under our jurisdiction.See #35. Though William Joyce, WWII Nazi radio broadcaster and propagandist "Lord Haw-Haw" was a US citizen and had never been a British or Commonwealth citizen, he was tried and hanged for treason to the Crown. That establishes precedent, if in reverse.
Turn about is fair play.
