A "censure" of a President has only happened once before in US history, 1834, against Andrew Jackson.
It seems very few in Congress support Senator Finegold's proposal. Critics say he's been reading too many weblogs, or that Congress is too busy to deal with "symbolic" resolutions.
But no, I disagree with the critics of this idea. Censure. Impeach. Get the guy out of office. If this was a parlimentary system like the rest of the world has, this government would have been shut down long ago.
Despite Republicans who are always shouting down any ideas, or Democrats who appear afraid
of talking a stand on the issues, at least this action will put people on the record, one way or the others.
Thus, unfortunately, that means it will probably never come up for a vote.
