A Dark Day For The Bill of Rights and America
This is from a post at Bluedaze. A Dark Day For The Bill of Rights
Tuesday, February 12, 2008, was a dark day in the United States Senate for the people and Constitution of the United States of America. The Senate passed a bill to enshrine permanently the disgraceful law enacted in August 2007 to expand the powers of the President to engage in electronic surveillance of private communications without judicial warrants; in effect, to legalize the illegal wiretapping program that the criminal Bushite administration first hid from the public, then admitted to in 2005 after being exposed.
Not only does the bill give the criminal president the power to perform actions for which he should have already been impeached and criminally prosecuted; not only does the bill trample on the Fourth Amendment of the Bill of the Rights of the U.S. Constitution; but also, it deprives citizens of due process of law in the courts by giving the giant telephone companies retroactive immunity for illegally wiretapping telephones and invading their customers’ privacy rights. — You can read the full post by David Van Os here.
