There is a major travesty on display in Washington DC this week that has nothing to do with baseball, steroids, and not even the presidential election horse race.
Yesterday, the Democratic controlled Senate voted to strip your civil liberties and enable warrantless wiretaps of your phone calls, emails, web searches and more at the bequest of the George W Bush.
Forget About the Election - The Senate Just Voted to Strip Your Civil Liberties for 6 Years!
Smoke and Mirrors
The House is now grandstanding about the morals of steroids in baseball trooping Roger Clemens through a witch trial, while the rest of the House prepares to follow suit with the Senate and vote away your civil liberties sending a bill to the President to make the pact complete.
You can take action to stop this by contacting your Representative in the House immediately and letting them know that you do not support warrantless wire tapping, that you do not support the governments right to view whom you support in elections, to let them know that it is none of their business who you give campaign contributions to before the FEC oversight takes place.
Let the House of Representatives here your voice right away and know that you will not vote for any Representative that votes for this bill or abstains from voting at all taking a cowardly and politically safe position from protecting YOUR rights like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton did earlier this week. (John McCain was not a coward about voting to remove YOUR rights, but at least he is on record for his actions.)

Please consider that this bill isn't about not giving you something you do not already have such as individual health insurance, it is about taking away your right to privacy, your right to unreasonable search and seizure, free speech and much more. If you do not stand up for your rights now, it may not matter who is elected next fall in 2008.
