Taking legislative publicity stunts to a ridiculous low, the Senate was in session all last night at the insistence of the Democrats debating...you guessed it, an Iraq pullout bill. The bill, which will likely not escape filibuster, would be destined for veto regardless making the entire childish maneuver a ridiculous and meaningless waste of everyone's time.
Unfortunately, wasting time has become the hallmark of the Democrats' time at the Legislature's helm. Though a great number of post offices have been successfully renamed, the liberal leadership of the Democratic party has apparently insisted that only token legislation be passed. Apparently the Democrats have yet to realize that the endless stream of time-table bills destined for veto doesn't show President Bush the error of his ways, it merely shows the American people they made a mistake allowing the Democrats to take control.

Barbara Boxer Fires at Bush and Misses
In a radio interview today, Senator Barbra Boxer stated that the impeachment of President Bush should be "on the table." Why she feels this way: the advice of John Dean.
For those who do not know, John Dean is believed to be one of the architects of the Watergate Scandal. During the interview, Boxer recounts meeting Dean on a book tour and sharing with Dean her recent discovery that "the administration" had been spying on citizens without a warrant. Dean supposedly responded that absent a justification, that should be impeachable.
Putting aside the potential "justification" of investigating potential threats to the security of the United States, one critical question arises: Why is a United States Senator basing her policy judgments off of the advice of one of histories greatest political sleaze balls? If the Democrats really want the American people to take their fight against the "Culture of Corruption" seriously, perhaps someone should let Senator Boxer know she should be more careful when picking her sources and confidants.
