Senate accuses Galloway of perjury and obstruction of justice...
The report accused British Member of Parliament George Galloway of lying under oath about the payments.

The 65-page report by the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations accuses Galloway of perjury and obstruction of congressional proceedings. The evidence will be handed over to the Department of Justice for possible criminal charges.

Galloway -- a left-wing politician known for his theatrical rhetoric and fierce debating style -- appeared voluntarily before the Senate panel on May 17 and denied having taken any money.

1. Who are these corrupt individuals in our Senate?

I am so embarassed to be an American when I read how corrupt and dishonest members of our Senate are.

Galloway eviscerated Coleman with the truth and now like a crying baby he seeks this cowardly revenge?

How absolutely laughable.

3. Great question. Oh but, they were humiliated by Galloway so they
must seek their revenge on the truth teller.

4. Uh, I think he asked them to prove their unfounded accusations
and no one bothered. NOW they find some "new" evidence on him? Bullshit. I don't believe it. I don't believe a damn thing those people say. If he had taken money, why the hell would he provoke them into digging up whatever they could on him? He laid into Coleman. If he were a guilty man, why would he do that? Just wonderin'.

5. Isn't he a British citizen?
Can he even be charged for this crime here?
