A President has left the law shaking,
quaking like Scooter's aspens.
Who will rid us of this pestilent cloud?
like a swarm of flying lawless maggots.
Congress gets paid from your money,
to do things instead of just sitting.
So you must summon your Senate servants
and House-boys and House-maids, to censure
Cheney, censure Bush, for their stains on America.
The terrible crimes of these men cry to the skies.
Lies, lies, lies. Let them die, with the seal of censure.

Dear Mary Irvine:
I'm a Democratic voter and would like Russ Feingold to lead the Senate to censure George W. Bush and Dick Cheney before they leave office. Torture, Iraq, and wiretapping are only some of the many reasons to condemn the administration in the strongest terms possible. Thank you,
Sincerely,
[your name]
And feel free to send copies to your own congresspeople too, and/or to Harry Reid via chief of staff Gary Myrick, at Gary_Myrick@Feingold.senate.gov.
Sorry the action is not as poetic as the "edscan homage" above the fold, but life isn't always pretty. Censure will be pretty, though. Make it happen.
