CNN.com - GOP�senators�propose�NSA spying bill - Mar 7, 2006

The idea that the American people will be satisfied by a bill that enshrines the blatant violation of law and of the rights of the American people as some new law deserves to be shouted down loudly and clearly. The old FISA rules for spying within the US are more than lenient enough and the Patriot act made such things even easier. That was bad enough but apperently was not bad enough for President Bush. He ignored the law. Now his minions wish to make an ex post facto new law to excuse his felonious violations and allow more of the same under "oversight". I hope the American people aren't too beaten down and dumbed down to fall for such a blatant ruse.

Bush administration wants to prosecute reporters for espionage

Hot off the morning press the Bush administration is threatening to prosecute reporters for espionage for publication of "classified" information. This would include explicitly telling the American people that the administration was illegally spying on them. This administration is prone to much higher levels of secrecy than previous administrations and has repeatedly refused to respond to even Congressional oversight. Efforts to stop the people from knowing what they are doing include massive "inetrviews" by the FBI of many government employees including polygraph tests for lack of leaks.

Folks, these clowns need to be slammed down hard. This is NOT the American way. Stop these turkeys now before it is much too late.
