I doubt if it will do any good, but I called both my U.S. Senators from Wisconsin to express my outrage that the Senate is wasting time with this stupid no-confidence vote regarding Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez.
This vote will have no practical result, other than a photo op for the media. The Senate has already voted to confirm Mr. Gonzalez as Attorney General.
Perhaps we can each demand that our Senators do what they were elected to do, what they swore to do, to protect and defend the Constitution.
They do give themselves 20 weeks of paid vacation a year.
I would love to see this argued before the USSC. I would also love to be part of the class action suit which originated the case.
A few years ago, Walter Williams suggested that we pay them each a million bucks a year to STAY HOME.
At 535 million, it would be a bargain.
