Fight Back

Published: Mar 5, 2008 2:27 PM

President Bush and his stooges are back on the attack. They screamed that our country would be in imminent danger of terrorist attack if Congress did not renew his program of warrantless wiretapping.

They were wrong.

It's been 10 days since the law expired and yesterday four top intelligence officials sent a letter to Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell refuting his claims of impending doom:

"[The country is not] at greater risk. The intelligence community currently has the tools it needs to acquire surveillance of new targets and methods of communication."¹

President Bush doesn't care about the truth. A brand new right-wing attack group is already running ads targeting 15 House Democrats who stood up to Bush and voted against immunity for telecommunication companies who spied on innocent Americans.

Contribute $20 to DFA right now so we can fight back against the right-wing fear machine.

The Republicans in Congress will not let immunity die. In fact, Republicans rejected an extension of the current law because House Democrats stood up and refused to let Bush's telecom cronies off the hook. More proof that immunity for their law-breaking telecom buddies is all the Bush Administration cares about.

DFA will fight back against the Bush Administration and their right wing attack dogs. Together, we can make sure House Democrats stand strong.

Don't let Bush's telecom buddies have the "get out of jail free" card they want. Contribute $20 right now so DFA can stop telecom immunity once and for all.
