Halliberton and all. We have alot of BAD spending in this country,(if i did what these people are doing i would be in bancruptcy court), but just because your a politician your exempt. THAT IS NOt FAIR. Plus, every Gov. shouldn't be able to go over seas to check out whats going on in Iraq, i'm from Minnesota and Gov. Pawlenty just went over to Iraq and to my estimation he should have kept his behind right here in Minnesota. His mind should be with us and our problems, and not with everyone elses. I think we all know this Pres. is not telling the truth on all isssues that are before us, and i think that bringing the military home should be FIRST PRIORITY. Thank You.

The following laws should be enacted immedately, 1. When any office holder elected in America is speaking in public, representing his elected office, he should be legally sworn in, and under Oath, if he does not tell the truth, he or she should be prosecuted as a felony. 2. Anyone who profits, from war, as a war profiteer like Prescot Bush should be tried for war Profiteering and tried for Treason, Know any elected officials in Washington, or in your local state house who have profited from others destruction? Its time to get all the elected politicians to stand up for the truth. 3. Remove all tax credits for Big Oil and demand a transparent investigation into Cheney's energy task force which resulted in Bilkilng of untold billions of dollars from every American. 4. Make all elections in America Publicly financed, end the corruption of bought and paid for politicians. Those four laws would be a good start.

Censure is a win/win for Democrats. Force a vote. It will probably fail, but that is not the point. If Republicans vote for censure, they will be splitting with their party.

I applaud Senator Feingold’s courageous act. However, I am ashamed of the Democrats who lack the courage of their alleged convictions. Dedicated public servants must put the welfare of our nation first without fear of partisan accusations from those who place party loyalty above their sworn commitment to defend the Constitution of the United States of America. We, the people, have the right to expect courage from our elected leaders to endure a media that thrives on distrust and partisan vindictiveness. Too many of our elected servants in both parties refuse to stand up to those who would characterize their actions as un-American. Republicans and Democrats should be calling for investigations of President George Bush, as he shows complete disregard and arrogance in justifying his use of warrantless wiretapping. Any public servant who fails to abide by the most important protections of our democracy needs to be censured. For those elected representatives that refuse to address these issues, it is incumbent upon the American people to vote them out of office. ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT AGAINST GEORGE W.
