Three possible reasons why Feingold and other Congressional folks are not acting

opol over at daily kos voices three key possibilities why our senators and members of congress aren't in high dudgeon* over the crimes committed by our president and his compadres...

1) Bush has used the government spying apparatus to dig up dirt on all or most of the Democrats and is blackmailing them into submission. 2) Elements of Bushco have threatened the lives of anyone who gets out of line (remember the anthrax attacks on Daschle and Leahy?).

My third theory is that Democrats hunger for the powers Bush has stolen for the Presidency, and so don’t want to rein him in.

I believe that all three of these theories are true to some extent but whatever the final explanation is the fact remains that we the people are out of luck. No one is thinking about us.

he also expresses his profound astonishment and dismay that russ feingold, of all people, isn't demanding the ouster of bush and cheney and all their running dogs... i agree and, in fact, after receiving senator feingold's email announcing his censure motions, i wrote him and told him just how terribly disappointed i am...

opol concludes with this, to which i can only say, absolutely...!

Brothers and sisters, it’s time to impeach the President and his criminal minions. It is the only way to restore democracy, it is the only way to redeem our nation, and it is the only way to reclaim our country.

Don't let the politicians stall for time! Don't let them run out the clock! WE are the one's who are getting screwed!

Do your part! Stand up for America!

it's clearly in our hands now... nobody on a white horse is going to ride in and save the day...
