CENSURING THE PRESIDENT
We're Getting Somewhere

Good for Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.)!

The New York Times reports today, in "Feingold Calls for Censuring Bush Over Spy Program," by John Files: "Mr. Feingold, who spoke on the ABC News program 'This Week,' said he planned to introduce legislation on Monday that would censure President Bush and condemn his authorization of the eavesdropping program."

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (Tenn.) responded by calling Sen. Feingold's proposal "a crazy political move."

Well, if anyone knows from crazy, it's Senator Frist.

[Post-publication addendum: See also, "Feingold Wants Bush Censured Over Spying," by Douglass K. Daniel of the Associated Press, at the Washington Post web site.]
