"we're all jealous of you out there in Texas Anthony, where the people are all 32 stone, and there are no sidewalks cos nobody walks anymore, go and stuff your mouth...."

 

[Dom Sullivan]

Entertaining, yes, but he is the Jim Traynor of politics where there is the Galloway opinion and the other one is wrong

I agree. Brilliant clip but he should've let him talk more. He'd only have dug a bigger hole for himself anyway. Mong yank.

[tommo1903]

George Galloway is a politician.

 

Therefore he is a cunt.

[Jocky Balboa]

He's a Communist wanker.

[The Boofon]

He's a Communist wanker.

 

Who? Galloway or the American boy?

"we're all jealous of you out there in Texas Anthony, where the people are all 32 stone, and there are no sidewalks cos nobody walks anymore, go and stuff your mouth...."

 

 

That was my favourite comment of th clip. Just a fantastic, "Fuck you."

 

I don't even particularly care about his politics one way or the other, just when he gets the bit between his teeth and starts ripping the piss.

 

Mind you, the degree to which other politicians hate him tells me he probably is doing something I agree with.

 

Mon the George!

[Bobby Connor]

Mike Galloway is better. Ohhh shitey, shitey. Shitey, shitey, Galloway!

[Jocky Balboa]

Who? Galloway or the American boy?

 

Well, it wouldn't be the Texan, would it?

[The Boofon]

Well, it wouldn't be the Texan, would it?

 

It's nae Galloway either.

[leftside]

It's nae Galloway either.

 

pathetic jute bell-end.

utd fan in the 80's, now a tim.

Very lucky man to find an audience for his gobshite opinions.

[fifered]

All the Galloway fans still fans after his outburst today? What a prick the man is.

Worth noting that every British court has indicated that if the allegations against assange had been made in the uk he'd be facing allegations of rape.

[tup]

I don't think Assange is guilty of the charge he's purportedly to be extradited for.

 

I think that's what Galloway was alluding to, albeit in a highly crass manner.

 

What he is guilty of is leaking information which is detrimental to America, which is of course tantamount to writing your own death sentence.

If there is one subject male politicians in particular should steer clear of at all costs it is making any controversial comments on rape. Rape is rape, end of story and Galloway has hopefully signalled the end of his political career with these comments.

[fifered]

Yup. Still a George fan.

 

What did you read in there that suggested to you that he is a prick and worthy of condemnation?

That is the second story. The rebuttal I suppose from Galloway. Here is the first

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-19323783

 

I can't find the YouTube clip although seen some of it on sky. The fact that he thinks it is ok to have sex with a woman who is asleep is worthy of condemnation and labelling as a prick. That is rape.

An outlook the Republican tit Todd Akin would be wise to adopt.

[fifered]

He didn't say this, unless I am mistaken and you can show otherwise?

 

Either you're being stupid and fabricating shit in your head or I'm being stupid for missing the obvious?

Read the second article, the section entitled 'factually incorrect' paragraphs 3-5. I'd paste it but the iPad won't let me. Comments directly condemned by rape crisis.

[fifered]

There's the words that you were unable to copy. Now then, where's the point of contention? Spell it out.

You are deliberately not getting the point. He is referring to the allegation that assange had sex with someone while they were sleeping. That is rape. Galloway thinks it isn't and that it is merely bad 'sexual etiquette'. Your view on that particular aspect of rape would be?

[Ke1t]

All the Galloway fans still fans after his outburst today?

 

Unless I'm missing some critical comment from Galloway, then I don't see any reason to change my mind regarding him. I'm hardly surprised by the 'outrage' in the media regarding his opinions on the subject.

 

What a prick the man is.

 

Disagree with that.

Worth noting that every British court has indicated that if the allegations against assange had been made in the uk he'd be facing allegations of rape.

 

Also worth noting that Britain is about America's sole ally (Israel isn't an ally), and tends to act in a subservient manner to whatever the Americans say or do. If the Americans 'suggest' the British impugn or cast aspersions on an individual then I would expect the British to do so without question or complaint.

 

I would also view any remarks, comments or findings by the British justice system or official inquiries with extreme suspicion.

 

David Kelly, apparently, committed suicide in a forest.

 

You'll be able to see the autopsy in 70 years 'proving' as much when the reports and pictures on the body are declassified.

 

That Assange is suddenly a mad rapist, I'm sure, is entirely coincidental to the fact that he was the outlet for masses of sensitive documents into the public domain.

 

I'm being facetious, of course it isn't.

 

As for Galloway, I share his suspicion of any and all allegations regarding Assange. During the Cold War this kind of scenario was known as a Honeytrap. Still in common usage today.

 

I'd also put his chances of a fair trial at approximately zero.

 

Personally I've no doubt Assange is being set up.

Whether he is being set up or not isn't the point. The point is about Galloway and his comments as they relate to what constitutes rape. He got it badly wrong.

 

As an aside, interesting you brought up the David Kelly thing, always thought there was something not right about that from the very start. He was a good man and was treated very badly and most probably taken out.

[fifered]

Did you not bother to read the articles?

 

He had sex with the woman. They both fell asleep. He jumped on top of her again whilst she was sleeping. She woke up. This is not rape.

I think you need to read the whole article again. Assange is alleged to have had sex with a woman who was asleep. She cannot consent, therefore that is rape. Galloway said it isn't. You didn't answer directly last time, what is your view on that?

[Ke1t]

I think the most you could say is that you disagree with Galloway, rather than say he called some ambiguous (and to my mind, highly suspect) situation right or wrong. I would, personally, consider shagging a sleeping bird to be bad form... but rape? Please. (EDIT: To clarify, A sleeping bird you were in a sexual relationship with. Conversely, climbing in a window and shagging a bird who, subsequently, wakes up and cries rape... that'd likely be rape).

 

I had an ex... someone who had consenting sex with me... tell me she gave me a blowjob while I was asleep, just to see if she could get me off. Now, while I was monumentally pissed off that she didn't wake me up, I would hardly qualify what she did as even approaching rape.

He 'killed himself' before he could testify, and the government ordered the autopsy and photographs of the body locked away for almost three quarters of a century. Government is to be trusted as far as it can be thrown.

I wasnt aware a poll of every British court was taken?

 

A couple of weeks ago a girl I was in shagging woke me up by giving me a blow job, I didnt feel violated... would you?

His appeal against extradition was held in various levels of court up to the supreme court. All of which agreed that the allegations constituted rape.

I reckon you might know my ex.

[Jonty]

Back to the first question though, having ploughed through your misunderstanding, what has George said that condemns him?

 

Sir, I praise your courage and idefatigability to fuckin Saddam is pretty condemning I'd say.
