#1 The 5th won't apply. This could be great theatre.

#2 Or maybe it would.... still it would be a fine show. Grant the 'ole boy whatever immunity congress can and let it rip.

#4 He thinks it will be a place where he can spew his noxious crap. He is about to find out although we "seem" to be more reserved in our legistalure these guys mostly can make George look like the little creep he is. I welcome someone like Orin Hatch or even Barney Frank getting hold of his ass. It won't be pretty. These guys in the Senate and House of Rep know how to beat you to death with the facts. Most have law degrees. Red meat stuff. Someone get the popcorn ready.

#10 I'm in for fifty yankee dollars to Fred, too.

Georgie G., if you are reading, that would be equivalent to your commission from 166 to 1666 barrels of oil. Roughly.

#11 I'll go fifty for Fred that he does show. That way Fred is covered both ways.

#13 Okay I'm down for 50, but if it happens it needs to wait until September.

#14 He said it was "patently absurd" to think that, as an MP being closely watched by UK security services, he could have become an "oil billionaire" on the sly.

Wrong again, Harvey Korman Georgie. Who said anything about being a billionaire?

Is it me or does this assclown use exaggeration way too much as his primary rhetorical schtick?

#15 Wonder how the Beeb will cover this???

There might have to be a replacement election for him down the road.
