Ripe for Censure.

"This conduct is right in the strike zone of the concept of high crimes and misdemeanors....We, as a Congress, have to stand up to a president who acts like the Bill of Rights and the Constitution were repealed on Sept 11." On This Week, Senator Feingold calls for a censure of Dubya for, "openly and almost thumbing his nose at the American people," continuing the NSA warrantless wiretaps. (The censure resolution is here.) Catkiller Frist -- flush from his straw poll win over the weekend -- responded by calling the censure a "terrible, terrible signal" to give the evildoers. It's "terrible" to show respect for the rule of law? Get real. It's about time somebody in the AWOL Senate stood up to this administration's repeated abuses of power. Update: Feingold writes more on the censure. (Via Medley.)
