Feingold SCHOOLS Wallace on Faux Snooze Sunday
Every Freeper talking point was carefully, tactfully and firmly SLAPPED DOWN by Russ. It is a MUST-See!

1. I like that Sen. Feingold went on FOX so soon after the past week's
censure story.

Far rarer to see GOP locksteppers grant interviews to hostile media.

3. He was on the very beginning of the show
I alerted John at Crooks and Liars and I'm sure he'll have it on there at some point.

4. Feingold Stands. Feingold and Boxer for 2008!

Does anyone honestly believe that this administration has not served up retribution to those who oppose its policies? Investigate them? Sure. Censure of this president? About time.

War? How about worrying about a real war-like with a China and Russia.

Go Russ. You are right on.

5. Is there a transcript anywhere? I downloaded the audio of Feingold's
Censure Hearing on his Senate website and worth the wait to have a copy of this historic hearing.

Feingold for Prez

Feingold!!!

=March 31st, 2006 at 11:10 amThoughts on the Censure Hearing By Christy Hardin Smith (ReddHedd)

UPDATE: The invaluable Crooks and Liars has the clip of Sen. Feingold giving Glenn his due. (Thanks, John — you’re a peach!) Good on Glenn for making a splash — and good on Feingold for recognizing quality blogging when he reads it.

Both Sen. Russ Feingold and Sen. Pat Leahy stood up for the Constitution today and performed their patriotic duty. Both of their opening statements were powerful and heart-felt, and their questions were insightful and probing on issues that are vital to the continuation of our republic.

If you have not done so, please take some time and thank both Senators for their efforts at this hearing today. They both deserve major kudos for doing the heavy lifting for all of us

— and I could not be more proud of both of them....

7. I usually takes a day for FNS to have a transcript...
They may not want to have one of Russ' interview since he skewers them so badly.

:bounce:

BTW, I made a version of Russ's speech with Bush's soundbites set to music:

13. Hey, what's Russ doing....
going on Fox and giving them legitimacy? Now everyone's going to think they truly are fair and balanced. What a traitor!

:sarcasm: (in case you couldn't figure that out)

(Bravo for Russ! We've got to do more of this...not less, IMHO.)

20. MP3 of the interview
Edited on Mon Apr-03-06 10:47 PM by zulchzulu
www.awolcowboy.com/mp3/FNS_Feingold-040206.mp3

It's audio from the C&L clip, which is not the complete interview. Still, a nice thing to listen to...

19. Sen. Feingold is doing an excellent
job against all odds. We drastically need more people in Congress who are willing to fight to keep our Constitution and laws intact. Senators like Orin Hatch, Lindsey Graham, Kyl are showing their disregard for the law and the Constitution. It's sickening that we are stuck with these oily power hungry unpatriotic Senators.

I just posted about it and I'd like some action on that thread should anyone be interested...
