Dear MoveOn member,
Since yesterday afternoon, when we launched the petition, over 200,000 of us signed up to support Senator Russ Feingold's call to censure President Bush for his illegal wiretapping. Now, Republicans are on the attack?Senator Wayne Allard (R-CO) even accused Feingold of "siding with the terrorists,"1 and the Republican National Committee is mounting a petition against him.
We've got to work quickly to show other senators and the media that hundreds of thousands of us support Senator Feingold and the rule of law. So, we're increasing our goal: we want to get 350,000 signers by the end of the week. Can you sign our petition asking Congress to censure President Bush for his illegal wiretapping?

Sen. Russ Feingold today introduced a measure in the Senate to censure President George Bush for his conduct surrounding what the Wisconsin Democrat calls an ?illegal? eavesdropping program run by the National Security Agency (NSA).
Sen. Feingold?s bill calls for the president to receive a verbal reprimand from the Senate for violating the U.S. Constitution, as well as a period of ?time out? in which Mr. Bush will be required to sit in the corner of the Oval Office and to think about what he has done.
According to the text of the legislation, the president will have one minute of time out for each patriotic American whose civil rights were violated when the NSA tapped terrorist communications.
Sen. Feingold, a likely 2008 presidential candidate who co-sponsored the landmark Campaign Finance Reform Act, said he?s taking this aggressive step so that ?in the future Americans will be able to say ?Feingold? without saying ?McCain? first.?
The McCain-Feingold measure eliminated the corrupting influence of big money from political campaigns.
A rival version of the censure bill, backed by moderate Republicans, calls for a one-week disciplinary period during which Air Force One, the president?s plane, would be grounded. http://www.scrappleface.com/
Go Feingold 2008!!!!!!!!!! BWWWAAAAA HA HA HA. AAAAAHHHH HA HA HA
