3.15.2006 ||> The Ides of March are always bad for senators
Yesterday, I posted the longest post I have ever posted. It was a post that needs to be spread all over the internet like a virus, picking up support wherever it lands. If we can't impeach the President for being a lying liar, then the Congress needs to at least censure him. I mean, the guy has 38% approval rating - this should be a done deal already.
So why is everyone equivocating?
Senator Feingold is a solid, decent human being and an awesome senator. The people of Wisconsin are very lucky to have a senator who travels around his state going to town meetings all year. A senator who backed a politically unpopular (in DC) anti-corruption bill with Senator McCain. A senator who always does the standup, moral thing.
So those senators that are resolutely undecided about this measure need to step up and get Feingold's back. Screw the "oh, I live in a red state!" crap. Does anyone thing Senator Snowe cared about her liberal base in Maine when she supported Alito? No! So get some goddamned courage and support this bill!
I'm sick and tired of unfunded mandates like No Child Left Behind that hurt children. I'm sick of a deficit so large it will take us 75 years to pay it all back. I'm sick of the government telling me I should be afraid of
So, if the Democratic Party really represents me, they'll support this resolution. If they don't then I will consider every Democrat senator a Democrat in name only.
