  • With Your Help, Chris Dodd Wins Temporary Victory on Warrantless Wiretapping

    Immediately after stealing the White House in 2001, Bush and Cheney told the telecom giants to wiretap ALL phone calls and emails of ALL Americans - even though it was completely illegal under FISA, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

    Only one company, Qwest, chose to follow the law. In true mafia fashion, Bush and Cheney punished Qwest by denying it contracts and prosecuting its CEO, Joseph Nacchio, for alleged securities fraud. The other companies willingly broke the law, and now face 40 civil lawsuits from outraged customers. So Bush is desperate to get Congress to grant the telecoms full immunity for the crimes he coerced them into committing.

    In October, Senator Chris Dodd promised to filibuster the immunity bill. Harry Reid betrayed Dodd and all of us by pushing a vote on telecom immunity. On Monday, Dodd fulfilled his promise, and Democrats.com and other blogs generated over 500,000 emails to Congress in support of Dodd's filibuster. Key Democrats supported Dodd's filibuster, and Reid was forced to reschedule a vote in January. Watch Dodd's thank-you message:

    Of course nothing will stop Bush and Cheney from creating a fascist dictatorship, and they will put immense pressure on Harry Reid to pass the immunity bill when Congress returns. So let's keep a steady flow of emails to Congress opposing telecom immunity:

      dodd is the best man for the job. He is the only candidate that has actually gotten things done in the senate. Family medical leave act for starters. He is also the only person running for president that gives ALL of his staff the same health insurance he gets.

            What's funny is that people like you are sheep. As this President and his cronies are trying to make this Country more and more like a dictatorship where they know everything you do and tell you what you can and can't do.
