I doubt he'll get enough

I doubt he'll get enough support for this to go anywhere though.

On a different, but related note:
U.S. Select Committee on Intelligence Phase II Report was released a few days ago. It reports, pretty conclusively, that the government exaggerated and misrepresented the intelligence in making the case for war in Iraq.

Where the hell is our news media? Surprisingly, even the AJC wrote a piece about this. But this report has been sadly out of the spotlight in general.

It's nice to see

I'm glad to see somebody doing something. For lack of any better way to put it, Reid and Pelosi have been such pussies about actually holding the republicans responsible for fucking things up so badly, and it's been very disappointing to see how little they've accomplished with a majority in Congress. Granted, it's hardly an overwhelming majority and they're dealing with a president who is unwilling to compromise, but I hope we'll get somebody with teeth this time around.

edit: It's going to be interesting because the Democrats probably won't push this too hard for fear of rallying the republican base, but the Republicans don't want to alienate centrists or independents. Are they going to stand up for their president who is loathed by 2/3rds of the country, or are they going to hang him out to dry?
