Can't turn left?

Again, I'm glad Frist is calling the Dems out on this stuff. The withdrawl from Iraq, the Patriot Act, the wiretaps... Look, if the Dems are serious about this stuff, why don't they vote against it?

Yesterday, Democrat Senator Russ Feingold called for a censure of President Bush. The censure reads:

"The United States Senate does hereby censure George W. Bush, President of the United States, and does condemn his unlawful authorization of wiretaps of Americans."

Senator Feingold is flat wrong and irresponsible.

In fact, when I attempted today to bring this censure resolution to the Senate floor for a vote, the Democrats objected. Proving it is just a shameful political stunt.*

Democrats have a choice: Either actually be tough on national security, or continue to play anti-Bush politics (thereby continuing to lose elections). Feingold, while one of the Senate's staunchest liberals, is usually a pretty level-headed guy. However, he's also going to run for President in 2008. So, I think we can see that he's made his choice. Too bad.
