Feingold Wants Bush Censured
Sunday, March 12, 2006
For Spying , though I can think of many more reasons.
A liberal Democrat and potential White House contender is proposing censuring President Bush for authorizing domestic eavesdropping, saying the White House misled Americans about its legality.Not as good as impeachment, but it is a step. So what does Frist think?
"The president has broken the law and, in some way, he must be held accountable," Sen. Russ Feingold D-Wis., told The Associated Press in an interview.
A censure resolution, which simply would scold the president, has been used just once in U.S. history — against Andrew Jackson in 1834.
"a crazy political move" that would weaken the U.S. during wartime.Did Congress ever declare war?
Censure and then impeachment will not weaken us, it will save us from insanity.
