Sometimes there are extraordinary circumstances under which some people need to be personally ripped to shreds (hell, others have done it).
What Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner did today during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on reforming the USA Patriot Act merits the following statement from me: you besmirch the House of Representatives and disgrace America with your presence there, Jim. You should resign.
In a House Judiciary Committee hearing today on the Patriot Act, Democrats started asking some tough questions about how the erosion of civil liberties and basic rights by that legislation relates to Bush administration-sponsored torture policies. Sensenbrenner didn’t like this. So instead of debating with his colleagues, this coward, after being snippy and rude the whole time, shut down the committee and walked out. You can watch this video of Sensenbrenner’s illegal, anti-American behavior. When he last got his lobotomy, they must have mistakingly replaced his brain with that of a pig.
I can’t tell you how infuriated I am this evening. From Tom DeLay to Comrade Stalinbrenner, the House has been transformed into a tyranny of the majority party. Democracy, run for cover.
