1. That statement made on the senate floor should have been...
...shouted down by the certainly the democrats present. Had Galloway been there, he would not have gotten another word out!

2. Invoking Godwins Law on the Senate floor
will not be much better than any internet board or chat room.

His reelection poll numbers must really be getting to him.

4. Goodwin's Law of Usenet...
Professor Goodwin, U of I, in 1981 made the observation that Usenet discussions gravitate downhill.

He postulated that as the length of a discussion thread grows, the probability approaches one (1) that one participant will introduce the terms "Hitler" or "Nazi".

The custom has evolved that the first party to utter "Hitler" or "Nazi" has lost the discussion, and the thread terminates.

5. Rick Santorum, Pennsylvania Non-Resident
But that doesn't stop the fucker from being senator. What did I read-Bob Kerrey said "Santorum" is Latin for "asshole?" Sounds about right to me.
