The Treason Card

So, I started writing this long post about Senator Bill Frist's reaction to Senator Russ Feingold's call for censure when I realized all I really wanted to say was this: Senator Frist, you are an ass. Keep your fucking treason talk to yourself. The only reason Senator Feingold felt is was necessary to go the way of censure is because your spineless Republican buddies on the Intelligence Committee refused to do their jobs and investigate the president for breaking the law by spying on the American people. 200 years of checks and balances tossed out the window on your watch. So enough with the treason talk. The only "terrible signal" being sent around here is by you and YOUR commander-in-chief for showing the world that the rule of law means nothing in America anymore.

Okay I feel better. To fill in the blanks I suggest Crooks & Liars for the video (start with Russ then scroll up for Frist), then visit Glenn Greenwald for the commentary, and finally stop by FireDogLake for ways to support Russ Feingold.

Take action. This one's important.
