Senator Feingold Has Just Joined Me Calling for Censure

On ABC's This week with George Stephanopolous, Senator Russell Feingold has just joined my call for censure of the President. Many of you remember that I introduced a resolution, House Resolution 637, last December to censure the President at the same time I introduced House Resolution 635 to investigate the President's Administration for possible impeachable offenses. The Senator announced on the show that he planned to introduce his bill at the beginning of the week.

As you know, the Senate tends to move much more slowly on issues such as these. While Senator Feingold has not come to the same position as I have - calling for a special committee to investigate impeachable offenses - he didn't rule it out. And when asked, he didn't rule out pressing for impeachment. It is a good sign that there are others catching up with us in the call for accountability for this White House. While some are impatient for immediate action, we need to understand that pursuing this in a measured fashion will give us the best chance of success. The emergence of Senator Feingold in taking this stand is a broad and positive step toward our ultimate goal.

I happen to be currently having a debate with someone on another board who claims that Conyers is doing "nothing", is using the report as a 'bait and switch' on the NSA scandal, and might even be "shilling for Bush"!

That's hilarious. They apparently haven't heard of the Downing Street Minutes. If I recall, Conyers trying to get that out wasn't exactly trying to help dimson.

He is almost the only one out there trying to get the attention of the crowd. For some reason they do a pretty good job of ignoring him in D.C. The conference/hearing he had last week was outstanding. Yet if you don't watch c-span you don't see it or even know what is going on.

House Dems. are getting less respect than the Senators.

I have been wondering why he introduced this right after the illegal wiretapping came out? Why doesn't he now write up a resolution about it? It seems like a real winning way to pursue impeachment.
