| 84. The false info is saying the list supported censure for Clinton but DON'T |
|
Edited on Thu Mar-30-06 09:34 AM by blm
support censure for Bush.
Most people don't realize that those Dems NOT ON THE LIST supported continuing the impeachment process in the senate.
The other implication is that Feingold needs co-sponsors - he doesn't - he WANTED censure in committee and GOT censure into committee and NEEDED senators to say they wanted INVESTIGATION by the committee and needed to hear evidence, setting up Feingold's hearings set for Friday.
The moment that Feingold moved censure into committee was the moment the need changed from supporting censure without further investigation to supporting INVESTIGATION and hearings on NSA spying to determine guilt by show of evidence.
Feingold said he was pleased to have censure in committee where it could be investigated two days after he submitted his resolution - why so many left pundits don't get that the action shifted at that point is troublesome - are they that obtuse and don't realize that a demand for a declaration on censure now supports the quick dismissal of censure (GOPs have the numbers) with no hearings or investigation, OR intentionally trying to further the position of the GOP?
|
| -Cowering Dems - Only 3 Senators' names are on Feingold's resolution. |
