GOP to air ad criticizing Feingold for censure proposal
Washington - The Republican National Committee says it will begin airing an ad on talk radio shows in Milwaukee and Madison this week criticizing Wisconsin Sen. Russ Feingold for his proposal to censure President Bush.

The ad describes Feingold as the "leader" of a group of Democrats "working against" the president's efforts to "secure our country" by monitoring terrorist communications and disrupting terrorist plots.
"Call Russ Feingold and ask him why he's more interested in censuring the president than protecting our freedom," says the ad, according to a transcript and audio provided by the committee.

Feingold issued a statement late Monday that says in part: "The President has broken the law, and the censure resolution I introduced is intended to hold him accountable. Nobody says that we shouldn't be monitoring suspected terrorists. Of course we should, and we can under current law. We have yet to hear a reasonable argument from the president or anyone else why it was necessary to break the law."

A Republican Party official would not say Monday how much is being spent on the ad, or whether the party plans to run ads in other states on the subject.

Feingold is adored in Madison. This will backfire.

Well looks like it's time to get the right-wing nutjobs on the AM radio waves riled up. Maybe they'll commit some violent acts agaisnt liberals.

The Republicans would like that. Or do I mean Nazi's.

6. Go for it ....
.... Keep it front and center. The President Broke the law ..... End of Story.

Better yet get * out there talking about his "Terrence Surveillance Program"


I saw a little of this in Cleveland yesterday .... if you against the President breaking
the law then you support al Qaeda.

This time no John Kerry sit back and take it crap like the swiftboat shits ..... this time punch em in the mouth
and let em know we are here.

"They" will make it about Feingold but in truth it is about the President breaking the law.
