After the latest Bush administration attack on our privacy rights
was disclosed, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s office stated that
she “raised concerns when she was told about the collection of phone
company records and the security agency’s surveillance activities.” But
what did she and others that knew of this illegal program do to
actually stop the disclosure of phone records to the government? Why
didn’t they inform the public of what was transpiring?
Do not give me the excuse of “National Security and the need for secrecy.” Many crimes have been committed by this administration using this excuse as cover. And too many Democratic leaders have gone along with these crimes using the same excuse.
The world can not afford to wait for more of these outrages to occur. It is time to drive out the Bush regime and all its lackeys before we have no freedom left to protect.
