If you can frost Nixon, you can censure Bush: have your say
One finds it fascinating that with the film Frost/Nixon currently out, that there is not more public outrage that the current Nixon, George W. Bush, is still in office and unimpeached and uncensured…nay, not even threatened with impeachment or censure, even though he may have damaged the country even more than Sickie Trickie Dickie did. (Cf. the Nix quote “If the President Does It, It’s Not Illegal”.)
Nixon was not held fully accountable before he left office–and then he was pardoned. Do we want this repeated?
–And see some of Adam B’s fine commentary on Frost/Nixon here, and some from Meteor Blades here.
Anyway, all the reader has to do is click on the following link,
Gary_Myrick@Reid.senate.gov, Mary_Irvine@Feingold.senate.gov
, and send the little package on its way to your hired servants on the Hill, Russ Feingold & Harry Reid, through their chiefs of staff,
[e-mail subject line: "Censure Bush/Cheney, finish the job Russ and Harry"]
Dear Senators Feingold and Reid:
Please officially censure George W. Bush and Dick Cheney for their Nixonian, disgraceful, and ruinous failures of duty in office, before they leave office. Torture, Katrina, Iraq, and wiretapping are only some of the many reasons to condemn the administration in the strongest terms possible. The integrity of the Senate and of the Republic itself depends on official condemnation of our failed and immoral leaders.
Thank you,Sincerely, [your name]
Or phone them too, Russ’s chief of staff Mary Irvine, at (202) 224-5323, or Harry’s chief of staff Gary Myrick, at (202) 224-3542.
Frost away! And thanks for reading/acting!!
