House Proposal to Censure Cancer-in-Chief
"Ranking House Judiciary Democrat Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) has introduced a motion to censure President Bush and Vice President Cheney for providing misleading information to Congress in advance of the Iraq war, failing to respond to written questions and potential violations of international law". (At least neither of them lied about an extramarital affair, huh?) Oh, you can find the text of the proposal on Thomas, by searching for things authored by Conyers.What we need is a grand jury, where the President cannot refuse to testify under oath. That way, when he pulls nonsense like:
"any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so." (those are the president's own words, on 4/20/2004.)
"And without revealing the operating details of our program, I just want to assure the American people that, one, I've got the authority to do this[wiretap U.S. residents without a court order]; two, it is a necessary part of my job to protect you; and, three, we're guarding your civil liberties." and again on 12/19/2005
I am the law, btches, and you should be thankful I'm here, or you'd be speaking Iraqi, now. And I'll do whatever I damn well please.
