no wonder this senator is afraid of his phone being tapped….

 

it never ceases to amaze that the bush administration will always take the lying cheating way when it doesn’t have to. 

 

a good case in point is the current flap over the tapping of phone lines without a court order.   for whatever reason, which you can pick, it just doesn’t make sense.  it is so easy to get a court order for a wiretap that there is no need to do it illegally.

 

any rinky dink cop can walk into any politically appointed judge and get the order that is needed to listen in to your deepest darkest secrets.

 

this thing is sort of like the weapons of mass destruction reason for invading iraq.  president bush had all kinds of good and true reasons to do it, but he had to just make one up.

 

so, this week the winner of the “hey abbott award” is senator russell feingold a wisconsin democrat who has happily grabbed the bush administration’s latest screw up with a politically motivated blitz.. 

 

russell is not really worried about whether or not phones are tapped, you can be assured.  he is a liberal democrat who wants to attack the republicans in anyway he can.

 

by the way, russell is so liberal he has already had a couple of wives and is looking around for a third which is why he thought that “can’t keep my zipper closed” bill clinton was a terrific moral man. 

 

the senator is a graduate of the university of wisconsin which was the slime school of the vietnam war era..

 

it was that draft dodging institution that invented the term “baby killer” in an effort to bring dishonor on the young american kids who were not rich enough to go to college like russell, but got sucked up into that terrible war.

 

his law school, of course, was harvard which is currently leading the attack against army recruiters appearing on its campus while it continues to be subsidized by the federal government with all types of grants….not to mention the taxes it does not pay to boston or the state of massachusetts.

 

the worst part of senator russell feingold is that his own state is a crap house of economic troubles, poor schools, and social unrest, yet he and slime democrats like him actually make president bush and his administration look good.
