#1 As perjury is a felony in America, Galloway could face trial in front of a jury, and a prison sentence of up to five years.

Stay out of places where there is an extradition treaty, Georgie. Otherwise you may learn about bendovers in Leavenworth... Most any country will accept 5-years as not being excessive.

#3 Its very rare for a someone to get convicted on perjury. It is fairly common and rarely punished.

However if a case is shown to exist, he may end out in a British court.

#4 as we are seeing in the Plamegate affair, perjury is still a criminal offense.

#7 Having sorted through the public information on Galloway and his Mariam Appeal (including trip and expense reports to parliament) things do look very fishy in that fraudster sort of way. The missing records only confirm what it appears to have been. Matters little to his constituency I'm sure. He's quite a nasty little hypocrit (considering the descriptions of his personal life and the odd smile in his pics I'd even go so far as to wonder whether he is damn close to being a sociopath) and they like him that way it seems.

#8 When George lies, it is no big deal, but when somebody called Scooter does, we throw the book?

#9 Any chance a Belgian or Spanish judge will indict him?

#10 Lied to the Senate...? Hardly surprising, who hasn't? Remove the cookie duster and Galloway has a striking resemblance to Mohamed Al Fayed. Check it out. http://www.alfayed.com/
