Good, step to the plate, Senator, and be one of the few to do your elected duty.
WASHINGTON, March 12--Senator Russell D. Feingold said Sunday that he would introduce a measure in the Senate to censure President Bush over the domestic eavesdropping program.
"What the president did by consciously and intentionally violating the Constitution and laws of this country with this illegal wiretapping has to be answered," Mr. Feingold, Democrat of Wisconsin, said on the ABC News program "This Week." "Proper accountability is a censuring of the president, saying: 'Mr. President, acknowledge that you broke the law, return to the law, return to our system of government.'"
I appreciate a strong member in Congress who is willing to stand up and say what Bush is doing is wrong. Unfortunately, the Republican-controlled Congress will do everything in their power to block this brazen move. I guess it's the idea and thought that really matters at this conjecture.
