IN YOUR GUTS YOU KNOW HE'S NUTS:
Feingold Blames Stalled Censure Motion on 'Cowering' Democrats (Fox News, March 14, 2006)
Sen. Russell Feingold on Tuesday blamed fellow Democrats for inaction on his stalled resolution to censure President Bush for his authorizing the National Security Agency's electronic terrorist surveillance program."I'm amazed at Democrats ... cowering with this president's numbers so low," said Feingold, D-Wis. "The administration ... just has to raise the specter of the War on Terror, and Democrats run and hide."
Feingold's resolution, introduced Monday, accuses Bush of violating the Constitution and the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. It has failed to garner any co-sponsors.
Karl Rove ought to be raising money for the guy just because he forces Hillary to the rhetorical Left in the primaries. Posted by Orrin Judd at March 14, 2006 5:23 PM
Gosh, I haven't heard that one in years and this time it's true.

If Rove really pulls out the hidden stash of cash, maybe he can get a big meida blitz going for Russ and the other Democrats to say right before the November general election that their first act if the voters give them back control of Congress will be to implement impeachment hearings against Bush.
