28. Wexler tells is like it is.
Good for him.

What then is the proper remedy? A harsh lecture? A strongly worded editorial? Or how about doing nothing in the face of these outrageous abuses of power?

In other words, business as usual, which is what we've been getting up to now. Ho hum.

Impeachment hearings need not distract us from other important priorities such as the economy, gas prices and bringing the troops home from Iraq. Congress can and should address all important issues — including safeguarding our constitutional rights and obligations.

Of course. We should expect Congressional reps who can walk and chew gum at the same time. Upholding their oath to defend the Constitution isn't just part of their job, it's their duty.

Thank you, Congressman Wexler.
