Appearing on ABC’s This Week, Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI) announced that he will introduce a resolution tomorrow to censure President Bush for authorizing an illegal warrantless domestic surveillance program. Feingold said President Bush’s actions were “right in the strike zone of the concept of high crimes and misdemeanors.”

Well, hot damn.

Can I say I love Russ Feingold? Always have. I would have his babies.

From the confidence Feingold was expressing and the bluster that Frist came up with in response; this could be good.

Feingold is, and always has been, the shit.

I checked out Feingold’s website, and he appears to have his head together. Then again, I need to check and see how he votes in Congress–a sales pitch doesn’t mean a damn thing. I must see results.

Big whoop.

This is the equivalent of the congress-critters getting together and voting on a non-binding resolution that states “Bush Sucks!”.

Besides the fact that those critters are not beyond reproach themselves, (both of those that spell their name with an “R” or a “D”), they are doing this to a lame duck President.

Did you ever think that this might give those R people up for midterms a chance to distance themselves from the Bush administration?
