EFF Sues AT&T to Stop Illegal Surveillance
-
EFF's Class-Action Lawsuit Against AT&T for Collaboration with Illegal Domestic Spying Program. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed a class-action lawsuit against AT&T on January 31, 2006, accusing the telecom giant of violating the law and the privacy of its customers by collaborating with the National Security Agency (NSA) in its massive and illegal program to wiretap and data-mine Americans' communications.

NSA Lawsuit - Stop Illegal Surveillance
-
The ACLU is suing the National Security Agency for violating the U.S. Constitution. The illegal NSA spying program authorized by President Bush just after September 11, 2001, allows the NSA to intercept vast quantities of the international telephone and Internet communications of innocent Americans without court approval.
Without a system of checks and balances, the government can monitor any phone call or e-mail they want, and they can collect and disseminate any data they find however they like. Just knowing that the government is spying without cause on innocent Americans sends a chilling message to all of us that our conversations are not our own.

"You cannot have one foot in politics and another in terror," Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice said. Maybe Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice should explain that to President George W. Bush with his secret CIA Torture Prisons which have been secretly moved to northern Africa! Will the newly elected government engage in Terrorism or not behave its self like the United States likes to misbehave (Using Secret CIA Torture Prisons and spying on U.S. Citizens). No country should support terrorists, including our own country. "We will stop torturing you as soon as you agree to blow up something for the United States so we can blame it on Osama Bin Laden and get more support to take away more of the rights of American Citizens. Bill of Rights, whats that?" quoted from hypothetical/fictitious person at CIA Torture Prison.
No matter how close to the truth this statement may be, it is only coincidence if this statement reflects current United States Government Homeland National Security Policy on Terrorism. If you choose not to beleive this statement, then you might also beleive that the United States Government would never enguage in a Domestic Spying Program where the President and the National Security Agency (NSA) would intentionally use secret spying technology to spy on American Citizens! You might also beleive that the American Government would never kidnap people and fly them half way around the world so they can be tortured outside of the jurisdiction of the United States.

NSA spying authorized before 9/11

Support Impeachment! Americans Believe Bush Lied about Iraq! It's Time to Demand More Polls on Impeaching Bush! Have George W. Bush impeached and removed from the Whitehouse. Impeach and remove him from the Whitehouse, after hearings, because of the NSA wiretapping scandal. There are a lot of various other good reasons to have George W. Bush impeached besides the Bush Spy Scandal.

BUSH AUTHORIZED NSA SPYING BEFORE 9/11
-
There are few things that Bush has not justified through reference to 9/11, but the NSA wiretapping program couldn't have been a reaction to 9/11 since Bush's authorization occurred before it happened! Moreover, the justification that the NSA spying program was only being used to investigate terrorists is also false! The information coming from the National Security Administration was being used for partisan political purposes.
-
Bush Authorized Domestic Spying Before 9/11
-
The National Security Agency advised President Bush in early 2001 that it had been eavesdropping on Americans during the course of its work monitoring suspected terrorists and foreigners believed to have ties to terrorist groups, according to a declassified document. The NSA's vast data-mining activities began shortly after Bush was sworn in as president and the document contradicts his assertion that the 9/11 attacks prompted him to take the unprecedented step of signing a secret executive order authorizing the NSA to monitor a select number of American citizens thought to have ties to terrorist groups.

NY TIMES KEPT BUSH SPYING SECRET FOR A YEAR!
-
Illegal Bush Spy Scandal article was delayed from being published by one year! New York Times Newspaper knew about the ILLEGAL White House Spy Program for over one year before the article was published! The New York Times Newspaper delayed publishing the Illegal Bush Spy Scandal article on request of the Bush Administration! The New York Times newspaper complied with requests, by the very criminals breaking the laws, to keep quiet about the Illegal Bush Spy Program! The Bush administration initiated warrantless wiretaps on hundreds of people within the U.S.--including U.S. citizens--even though a federal law, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, expressly forbids the government from doing so.

Non-violently Protest Against Bush and Go to Jail?
-
"Free-Speech Zone" Bush administration quarantines dissent. When Bush travels around the United States, the Secret Service visits the location ahead of time and orders local police to set up “free speech zones” or “protest zones” where people opposed to Bush policies (and sometimes sign-carrying supporters) are quarantined. These zones routinely succeed in keeping protesters out of presidential sight and outside the view of media covering the event. The local police, at the Secret Service’s behest, set up a "designated free-speech zone" on a baseball field surrounded by a chain-link fence a third of a mile from the location of Bush’s speech. A 65-year-old man went to jail only because he was peacefully holding a sign stating "The Bush family must surely love the poor, they made so many of us." The man said, "If the Bush administration has its way, anyone who criticizes them will be out of sight and out of mind." See LOT's more news on how your right to FREE SPEECH is taken away when you try to publicly voice your opinion near President George W. Bush!

Bush’s War on the Bill of Rights
-
"It is useful, though perhaps depressing, to see the many ways in which president Bush has trashed the most noble and inspiring of all attempts to limit government through law, the Bill of Rights. Even as he advocates a new amendment to the Constitution to set national standards on marriage, the most important amendments already in place have each fallen prey to the ravages of his government."

Bush To Criminalize Protesters Under Patriot Act
-
George Bush wants to create the new criminal of "disruptor" who can be jailed for the crime of "disruptive behavior." A "little-noticed provision" in the latest version of the US Patriot Act will empower Secret Service to charge protesters with a new crime of "disrupting major events including political conventions and the Olympics." People perceived as disruptors may be preemptively ejected from events before engaging in any disruptive conduct. Bush Team may check its vast array of databanks to cull out those persons who it deems having "disruptor" potential and then blacklist those persons from events.

The Impeachment of George W. Bush
-
Any President who maintains he is above the law--and acts repeatedly on that belief by violating the law--commits high crimes and misdemeanors that endanger our constitutional system of government. Former Congresswoman Elizabeth Holtzman, veteran of the Watergate proceedings, calls for a full and fair inquiry into President Bush's actions, including his violation of US laws and international treaty obligations in the warrantless wiretapping and torture scandals; his reckless and dishonest waging of the war in Iraq; and his failure to fulfill his oath to faithfully execute the laws of the nation. This is a process that should never be lightly undertaken, she argues, but President Bush's misdeeds constitute grounds for his impeachment and removal from office.

Here’s the message from People for the American Way:
-
As President Bush boldly vows to continue
spying on American citizens, your senators will choose whether to replace Sandra Day O'Connor with a man who has repeatedly sanctioned the abuse of executive power. They will confront Samuel Alito's record of consistently favoring powerful entities such as corporations, the government, and law enforcement over individual rights. And they will learn more about Samuel Alito's career as a judicial activist working to roll back civil rights, religious liberty, environmental protections, and reproductive rights...

Bush administration wants records of Web searches
-
The Bush administration has subpoenaed Google for details on what users have been looking for on its popular search engine. Federal investigators already have obtained potentially billions of Internet search requests made by users of major Web sites run by Microsoft, Yahoo! and America Online, which all complied with the government request. Congress is debating an extension of the US Patriot Act, which dramatically expanded the government's ability to obtain private data. And congressional hearings are expected soon on the legality of a secret National Security Agency (NSA) program to track communications by U.S. citizens without previous court approval.

Illegal White House wiretapping program
-
People for the American Way Foundation is stunned and saddened by the recent New York Times story, now verified by the Bush administration, that the president has illegally approved the wiretapping of hundreds, perhaps thousands of Americans without any judicial authorization. This revelation exposes the latest, but arguably the most egregious, undermining of our civil liberties in a generation. The Bush administration's authorization of the National Security Agency (NSA) to engage in domestic eavesdropping without warrants, in direct violation of statutes prohibiting such action, quite simply, shocks the conscience. The Bush administration's defense of this program has strained all conceivable boundaries of legal credibility and the president's steadfast refusal to curtail this program now raises the issue to the level of a legitimate constitutional crisis.

Wiretapping Overview > Taps, Traps, and Pens -- Electronic Surveillance Overview
-
The federal wiretap law was enacted in 1968, and has undergone major revisions (example: US Patriot Act) since then as Congress has tried to keep pace with changing technology. Congress has tried to balance the often competing interests of law enforcement, privacy rights, and technological innovation. Technology continues to change, however, sometimes in ways that interfere with law enforcement surveillance, but more often in ways that enhance government capabilities. Most American citizens, for example, are relying more and more on electronic communications for a range of purposes from communicating with their workplace to researching term papers to scouting out the best of the new movies for a weekend date. In the process they are exposing more details of their lives to potential law enforcement surveillance and are leaving increasingly revealing and easily captured "electronic footprints" wherever they go.
