Smirking Chimp:
The do-nothing Democrat-led Congress, fresh from handing President Bush the power to spy on Americans without any judicial oversight, and just weeks after providing full funding for the continuation of the bloody war and occupation in Iraq, is now mounting an all-out campaign to co-opt and bury the growing grass-roots campaign to impeach President Bush and Cheney. (my emphasis)
... the Democrats are trying another tack--having both houses introduce censure motions against Bush, Cheney and Gonzales.
Calling Bush administrations actions "a sustained assault on our democratic republic," (Rep.) Hinchey says, "Congress must firmly address this abuse and misuse of power." But then he says the answer is "resolutions of censure" so that history will "show that Congress stood up to this administration and formally condemned it."
The words are powerful but the remedy for those words is not censure. The remedy for abuses of power and for the high crimes described by Hinchey and by Feingold is impeachment. (my emphasis)
