I'm with Russ: If not Censure, how do you hold Bush accountable?

"I welcome their attempt to make a campaign issue of the question of whether there will be accountability for the president's breaking the law. They will remind people every minute that the president thumbed his nose at the law." -- Russ Feingold

I am now beyond the nay-saying DLC-types. Forget about them... too much negativity. We have a plan.

That's right! As we head into a week that will culminate in a Senate hearing over whether to Censure the President of the United States for wilfully, intentionally and repeatedly breaking the law, we should keep in mind the key point to the censure debate.

If you are not going to censure a President who breaks the law, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who illegally wiretaps, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who condones leaking CIA agent's identities, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who lies us to a 1-2 trillion dollar war with 2318 U.S. deaths, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who condones Abu Grahaib and Guantanamo, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who oversees the disaster response to Katrina, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who runs up a 9 trillion dollar debt, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who tries to obliterate social security, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who cuts taxes for the rich while deficits soar out of control, how do you hold him accountable?

If you are not going to censure a President who lobbies for and signs into law a moronic medicare drug program, how do you hold him accountable?

So stand with Russ. Ask the Republicans, "How will you hold the President accountable?"

This is a winner for us.

on a day when people are rightly singing the praises of Tim Russert I remembered your diary of almost two years ago

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/5/8/13191/83603/116/208371

that is still really important.

you may need to repost that in the next few days while the hagiographies pile up.
