Moreover, after he threatened Blair, there is probably case law in the UK which would justify his immediate incarceration. chsw The reason why Galloway is still a free man must be that he has a following within the UK Labour Party.

Galloway gives new meaning to the term "Moonbat" and deepens our understanding of those on the left. The likes of Galloway confirm that the most detremental influences to the interests of countries like the US are not foreign powers but our "own" left. WWII shows an example of unity behind a common cause that is possible only when sedition is recognized and punished, and treason is taken seriously. Michelle is correct to focus on the actions of the far left - they are the real detrement to the nation and responsible for decreased support for common causes that are in the best intersts of the nation.

He knows that the truth will emerge and that he will go down in flames because of it. Deciding that the best defense is a good offense, he redoubles his efforts to be as publicly obnoxious as possible, to become the most vocal critic of Western power in general (US and Britain in particular), and to ingratiate himself to those who also oppose Bush, Blair, et al. Having achieved this notoriety, when the authorities come for him because of O4F, he can make the claim (which will be unconditionally accepted by his crack-pot friends and followers) that he is actually being persecuted for his speech, that the Powers That Be are really trying to silence his dissent and are using trumped-up O4F charges as a convenient excuse. So, is Galloway that smart? Nothing that comes out of his mouth would indicate so, but... Ok, I need an intervention from Penn and Teller. This must be a cry for help.

Probably the real reason George Galloway is so upset with the war in Iraq is that we overthrew a virulently anti-American regime and replaced it with a relatively pro-American democracy. One less enemy for America is one less ally for left-wingers.
