PLEASE READ THIS EVERYONE!!! THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!!!
On February 1, 2008 the Protect America Act is set to expire. This surveillance law was passed in August of last year and granted massive spy powers to the Bush regime that allow it to spy on just about anyone, whether a U.S. citizen or not, and without regard to the restrictions of the fourth amendment which normally require a search warrant. The law was demanded by the Bush regime last year, but Congress set it to expire on February 1 in order to “fix problems” in the legislation.
Congress and the Bush administration have been wrangling over the details of the law since then. One of the sticking points has been whether to grant civil immunity against lawsuits to the telecommunications companies that have been cooperating with the Bush regime in spying on us all. Of course the Bush regime is saying that such immunity is essential, including making it retroactive THIS WOULD MEAN ALL OF THESE PEOPLE WHO HAVE SPIED ON US WILL NEVER GET IN TROUBLE FOR THESE CRIMES AGAINST OUR RIGHTS!!!. The Bush regime also is demanding that the law grant the executive branch even more surveillance powers, as if the present law - which creates a world of virtually ubiquitous spying on all forms of communication - is not expansive enough.
On Wednesday, January 23, 2008 Vice President Dick Cheney demanded that Congress extend and broaden the spy bill stating, "fighting the war on terror is a long-term enterprise" that should not expire. He said, "We're reminding Congress that they must act now." Cheney also made clear that the regime needs the cooperation of the telecommunication giants to spy on us. "The intelligence community doesn't have the facilities to carry out the kind of international surveillance needed to defend this country since 9/11 (BULLSHIT). In some situations, there is no alternative to seeking assistance from the private sector. This is entirely appropriate," Cheney argued.
Apparently the tens of billions of dollars given to spy agencies annually such as the National Security Agency just are not enough to spy on tens of millions of us.
HOW DO YOU HELP OUR FREEDOM? write a letter to your congressmen, vote, post this on a blog, make people aware! It doesn't matter which party your with, this is a blatant CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY and our freedom. Don't let these assholes get away with this...OUR VOICES ARE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK!!!
