SUBMIT THIS ACTION FORM TO YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS & YOUR LOCAL PAPER:
Congress tells us they don't have time to have real hearings on impeachment because they have SO much important legislation to work on . . . like trying to sneak through telecom immunity for the umpteenth time.
And for the latest attempted scam that has already passed the house, they came up with a shiny new proposed escape hatch.
ACTION PAGE:
Criminal Wiretapping Is NOT OK Even If The White House SAID It Was
Now they say if the government purportedly told them it was OK, a right wing judge can let them off the hook, which of course they would. How stupid do they think we are?
This is just the same old "just following orders" Nazi war criminal defense. It did not fly then, and shame on the Congress for trying to enshrine it into U.S. law now. Just because some White House stooge attorney drafted a secret legal opinion (so classified that even Congress is not allowed to see it even now), that does not turn treason into patriotism. And if the telecoms did something wrong by enabling illegal domestic wiretaps, they KNEW it at the time, and must be held accountable.
