Feingold: Crazy?
Well, so sayeth Senator Frist.
You'll note that the Republicans are pulling out their usual weapons here. Their opponents are crazy. Their opponents are playing politics. Their opponents are giving aid and comfort to our enemies.
Feingold's resolution is certainly not crazy, expecially in light of Republican resolve to prevent a real investigation of unwarranted wiretaps. It's certainly not politically motivated, because (a) that's not how Feingold operates and (b) this move will probably be politically unpopular. This move is not giving aid and comfort to our enemies, because BITE ME YOU F*#$ing FASCISTS. I am so, so very sick of Republicans responding to every bit of reasonable criticism of this demostrably unprincipled and incompetent president by playing the patriotism card. Apparently ANY criticism of the president gives aid and comfort to our enemies...except, of course, criticism of him for being insufficiently conservative. That's o.k.. You know what I think is giving aid and comfort to our enemies? Not killing them at Tora Bora, that's what. Pointing out that Bush didn't get them when he had a chance, on the other hand: not giving aid and comfort. Pointing out that he is acting like a king rather than a president: also not giving aid and comfort.
I cannot see myself voting for another Republican for a very, very long time. (Johnny Quest has, incidentally, made it clear that if I vote for McCain in 2008 there will be hell to pay. She used to like him, but somehow that's changed since he became a Bush lapdog.) This is about half because of the way Republicans have run the country into the ground since the virtually siezed power in 2000 and about half because of the way they deal with criticism. These people are despicable. By God do you know what a miserable pack of liars, crooks and authoritarians it takes to make the Democrats look good????? The Democrats!!!! There are people who have advocated Bush's policies with whom I can have intelligent discussions. Those people I'm basically o.k. with. The people who I want to see hit by a meteor are the ones who question our sanity and patriotism for pointing out what is demostrably obvious to everyone with eyes to see--that the chimperor has no clothes.
O.k. That's it. I have nothing to say, really. I'm basically just yelling at the t.v.

Just wanted to repeat this:
"This move is not giving aid and comfort to our enemies, because BITE ME YOU F*#$ing FASCISTS."
How can you be so certain?
