Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) yesterday called for a vote on a resolution to censure President Bush over the illegal wiretapping of Americans (read the story).
Bravo, Senator! It's about damn time that someone has the guts to hold Bush accountable for SOMETHING. If they're not going to call him on how he lied the American public to gain support for his illegal invasion of Iraq, they might as well get him on this. Unfortunately, it's probably not going to amount to much.
*start sarcasm*
I mean, seriously...all he did was ignore the Constitution and illegally spy on American citizens without a warrant a bit. They weren't even using their civil liberties. Come on, it's not like he had sex in the Oval Office or anything REALLY bad like that.
*end sarcasm*
Anyway, I don't care if people call it "political grandstanding" or "posturing" or any other phrase political pundits like to throw around. At least Feingold is DOING SOMETHING. Too bad he seems to be the only Democrat with any balls.
So I haven't taken any pictures today so I figured I'd post one from last summer. This is from a day hike Sonja and I took over Portage Pass with Harvey and Luna.
That's Portage Glacier in the background. It's a beautiful hike over the pass...took us about 2 hours to hike up and over to the shore of the lake, then another hour to hike back to the car. The trip also requires a fun drive through the Whittier Tunnel, the world's longest railroad-highway tunnel. Good times, I'm tellin' ya.
I added a few annoying things to my blog, again. But these are cool cuz they give me money. Seriously, if any of you click on the adds over on the right (below all the links) or use my nifty Google search bar, Google pays me moolah. And I know how much you all love it when I get moola. So yeah, there's that.
Oh, and here's the Devil Tomato.
