This really is line in the sand time - CENSURE *

[MoonRiver]

Cat killer is going to bring a vote to the Senate floor, possibly as early as tomorrow. Democrats have got to stand with Russ. I for one WILL NOT FORGET how they vote. No excuses. Nope. Not one. Zero.

Senators, it's time to exercise your patriotic duty to protect and defend THE CONSTITUTION and WE THE PEOPLE.

:patriot:

[DoYouEverWonder]

1. Time to rally the troops

to the phones, faxes and emails. Charge....

[MoonRiver]

4. Yep. I'm on it.

:kick:

[still_one]

5. you shouldn't have to "rally" the troops on this one

if they don't get it by now, they should be voted out

[adigal]

39. How about we all say we will NOT vote in November

if they fold on this. I mean, why bother????

[still_one]

2. I agree

There should NOT be ONE Democratic Senator who doesn't vote for this including Liberman

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT AN IMPEACHABLE CRIME. This is what happened to Nixon

Going to be interesting

[sam sarrha]

3. Democrats are not supporting him.... dont want to piss of the Reich

[ClassWarrior]

6. Proof?

NGU.

[sam sarrha]

16. just saw Dem's on CNN that said they supported him but wouldnt vote for it

[ClassWarrior]

19. Who's "Dems" and do you have a link to his comments?

NGU.

[cali]

7. Hilarious

how often line in the sand time rolls around at DU. I hope my Senator (Leahy) votes for it, but if he doesn't, I'll still love him.

[MoonRiver]

8. I won't. n/t

[ClassWarrior]

9. You watch too many movies.

Politics is never as neat and definitive as we wish it would be. Of course Dems need to stand with Russ, but he himself calls this simply a first step. He understands that we have a long, hard slog ahead of us, and it's no job for prima donnas and drama queens.

NGU.

[MoonRiver]

11. I'm not expecting the resolution to pass. But I want to know Dems

are doing the only decent, honest, and rational thing possible, by voting for censure. I will have no faith left in them if they don't.

[fooj]

24. It's about doing the right thing.

I'm sick of all of the political posturing. Aren't you?

[ClassWarrior]

33. Apparently to the OP it's about lines and sand. I'm sick of all the...

...drama queen posturing. Aren't you?

NGU.

[fooj]

38. You betcha!

Peace.

[MoonRiver]

40. All I can say in response (yes, I know you weren't replying to me,

just about me), but to YOU this may be about drama, to ME it is about a line in the sand. I am dead serious about this. Others can reach their own conclusions. I have reached the end point.

[helderheid]

10. I'm confused - will censure derail impeachment?

[MoonRiver]

12. No. If it passed, which it won't, it might lead to impeachment.

That is if we take back the Senate and House.

[ClassWarrior]

13. Russ himself calls it a first step toward an impeachment investigation.

NGU.

[dmr4567]

14. Does Money talk here

I believe censure is the best next step and I thanked Russ for standing up. my question here is do I need to donate to his 08 campaign to get the other Dem's to get on board. Is that the way they know that people stand behind the proposal.

[ClassWarrior]

15. Use any means at your disposal. Most of all TALK to them.

NGU.

[mmonk]

29. Are you a large corporation?

[DearAbby]

17. MAN THE PHONES DU!

Call your Senators! Let them hear FROM THE PEOPLE!

[poverlay]

18. I agree. n/t

[FlemingsGhost]

20. Until you are willing to walk away--for good--you're just talkin' shit

Goes for all of you, at DU.

[Disturbed]

21. Any Democratic Senator that votes no on this should..

be voted out of office and thrown out of the Dem Party.

[FlemingsGhost]

22. Who has the balls to walk the walk, and not just talk the talk?

Most of DU is still talking "elections."

Only fools think "elections" are how fascists are driven from power ...

[mmonk]

30. And your proposal is?

[ClassWarrior]

32. Ummm... get off one's gluteous maximus and get involved, perhaps??

:eyes:

NGU.

[i miss america]

31. ITA. They either need to uphold their oath to protect and defend

or get the f*ck outta the way.

[Generator]

27. Do you have any suggestions on places to go?

Because I got the car gassed up and my coat on.

[ClayZ]

23. CENSURE bu$h!

:kick:

[sheelz]

25. Lets help make * the

first president in 172 years to be so condemned by Congress! :toast:

[Wrinkle_In_Time]

26. Sadly, some will probaly make it "head in the sand" time...

... yet again. Which is strange, since that position doesn't cover their ass.

But at least Sen. Feingold can sleep at night. What an impressive politician.

/Oh, did I accidentally kick this, sorry!

[understandinglife]

28. For Cantwell and Murray, either they support Feingold or they will ...

... never get my or my wife's vote, ever again.

Simple.


Peace.

[stillrockin]

34. Damn,

I am so f-in' sick of watching Democrats in Congress cringe in the corner. They are hopeless.

[Canuckistanian]

35. If not now, when?

This powder is bone dry. Use it or lose it.

Enough cliches?

[OneBlueSky]

36. I'm dying to see how my senators (Clinton & Schumer) will try to . . .

weasel out of voting "Aye!" . . .

and yes, I'll be calling their offices early tomorrow . . . e-mails have already been sent . . .

[ClassWarrior]

37. Ask them this...
