IF the the Judiciary Committee goes forward with the hearing on Friday. According to Roll Call:

Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) on Wednesday left open the possibility that Sen. Russ Feingold’s (D-Wis.) bill to censure President Bush could get its day before the full Senate, a move certain to ignite an intense partisan showdown with election-year stakes.

The Nation reports that Russ has two very interesting witnesses lined up for Friday's hearing:

Making arguments about the extreme seriousness of the warrantless wiretapping issue — and the need for a Congressional response — will be noted constitutional lawyer Bruce Fein, who served in President Ronald Reagan's Department of Justice as Deputy Attorney General, and author and legal commentator John Dean, who served at Richard Nixon's White House counsel before breaking with the president to reveal the high crimes and misdemeanors of the Watergate era.
