STATEMENT BY SENATOR EDWARD M. KENNEDY ON DOMESTIC SURVEILLANCE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Laura Capps/Melissa Wagoner (202) 224-2663
Washington, D.C. -- Today, Senator Edward M. Kennedy released the following statement on recent reports of the National Security Agency's collection of tens of millions of Americans' phone records.

"Today's shocking disclosures make it more important than ever for the Republican Congress to end its complicity in the White House cover up of its massive domestic surveillance program. When three major telephone companies are supplying the administration with records of all Americans regardless of any hint of wrongdoing, Congress can't look the other way. The Senate and House Judiciary Committees have a constitutional responsibility to get answers. If the telephone companies and individuals in the administration with knowledge of this abusive surveillance refuse to testify voluntarily, they should be subpoenaed and required to testify under oath.

It's time for the White House to come clean. The American people deserve to know what's being done to them. They deserve a Congress that's not AWOL on basic issues like this."

When Is Enough Really Enough?
by John Kerry
Thu May 11, 2006 at 10:19:58 AM PDT

We've got a government run by people who hold themselves above the law -- in the way they not only treat prisoners in Abu Ghraib, but assert unchecked power to spy on American citizens.

We know the consequences. We witnessed the CIA being bullied by the Rumsfeld Pentagon and the Cheney White House into shredding its credibility with unfounded claims of "slam dunk" evidence for mythical weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

But where's the insistence that - after having lives lost to this abuse of power and more lives on the line - we're going to demand an accountability moment?

* John Kerry's diary :: ::
*

Now that the President has tapped the chief defender of his warrantless wiretapping program to become CIA Director, what are we going to do about the nomination of Michael Hayden to head this wayward agency?

Peter Hoekstra, Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee describes this nominee as "the wrong person, in the wrong place, at the wrong time." Of course he's right.

He's nearly prophetic on a day when we are reminded of the Administration's determination to keep the extent of their illegal domestic spying program secret. Think about the fact that we have to read in the newspapers that the Department of Justice abruptly ended an investigation into the conduct of department lawyers who approved the program - not because the approving lawyers were cleared of wrongdoing but because investigators were denied the information to conduct the investigation. Does the Attorney General care about the oath he took? It didn't demand he protect a President's reputation, it demanded he protect the Constitution.

What else? Oh, yes, today we learn the NSA isn't just listening to international calls but is collecting the phone call records of tens of millions of Americans who aren't suspected of wrong-doing. How many times will government secrecy shield decision-makers from any kind of accountability?

Enough is enough. Yes, Congress needs to end the days of roll-over and rubber stamp before General Hayden becomes Director Hayden and proves Chairman Hoekstra right by doing the job wrong.

But something far more fundamental is out of whack in Washington. Every day we learn something new about this Administration's attitude - and too many people greet each story with a yawn as we learn that President Bush has announced he can disobey more than 750 laws enacted on his watch. Since when do we accept that any President has the power to set aside statutes passed by Congress when it conflicts with his interpretation of the Constitution?

We're dealing with a group of people who believe our traditional values are a luxury we can no longer afford. That's the Bush-Cheney Doctrine - under which we can't foreswear the fool's gold of information secured by torturing prisoners, under which we need to create a shadow justice system with no rules and no transparency, under which unwarranted secrecy and illegal spying are now absolute imperatives of our national security and those who question the abuse of power question America itself.

These guys believe in their guts that executive powers trump the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers and smearing administration critics is not only permissible, but necessary-and revealing the identity of a CIA agent is an acceptable means to hide the truth.

I know one thing - we can't defeat the Bush Cheney Doctrine if we're not crystal clear that it's wrong and we will not tolerate it any longer.

from the Ford administration?

during the Ford administration? Didn't Congress stop them then.

I don't see how they could not have scanned every e-mail sent for at least the last ten years.

hope you don't mind.:evilgrin:

:headbang:

of lists.

SecDef Cheney the same thing in 1990 when they were calling up retirees for BushFuckUpIraq-I.

My friends call me Gitmogirl. I'm not sure if that's dignified when one is pushing 43, but what the hell.

Join the local Chamber of Commerce.

Start calling all the members.

:evilgrin:

and then call everyone and send letters to them. :D :D

that might set the NSA db's buzzing.

(I'd say Iraqi, but I doubt enough phones work there to make it feasible.)

and then after that, as indicated by others, contribute to the NRA and the 700 club!

of Iran. I remember way back in the day, a local DJ Steve Dahl used to call Iran on air to order food and stuff like that, it was hilarious. Maybe call an Iranian sports team and start asking if "the game is on" stuff like that. :-)

I think we should designate Tuesdays at 9:11 AM as "fuck with the NSA" time. Everyone should call the White House or the FBI or the Justice Department or the NSA directly, if you can find a phone number for them. If you can't afford a long distance call, call the city offices, your representative's local office, the local court, whatever.

"By order of the Pretzeldunce of Murka, this phone conversation is being monitored by the Gestapo-uh, I mean national Security Agency. Thank you for calling 867-5309 and don't forget to say 'Hi!' to Agent Mike while you're here. Thank you, and remember, Allah Akbar!"

Along with "Oh! Please remember to leave your number, because even though the NSA has it, they don't share..."

a home answering machine, I use a service which has their own recording.

Oh, this had tears running down my face -

"Answer every phone call with "Thanks for calling the Al Qaeda House of Holy Jihad Against the Great Satan Bush, how may I help you?""

He was like, "Uhh...umm...well, I guess the next time I see you it will be with you on one side of a screen and me on another."

I replied with, "Well, think of the frequent flier miles you'll rack up between here and Guantanamo Bay!"

:evilgrin:

Seriously, I think the best defense is a good offense. We need to call everyone we know and use "code words" all over it.

Long as you got a phone that's all you got to do!

end your message with something like "Have a great al Qaeda day!" . . . it'll drive 'em nuts . . .

will this do?

Okay, there it is

I note how they say "people who bought this book also bought 'What's the matter with Kansas?'" However, apparently the reverse is not true.

"So, where IS bin Laden, you losers? Get a REAL job."

Btw, all my packages are coming pre-opened lately. I hope they enjoyed that bio of Truman Capote. And that's probably where the hardware to my potting bench went. @ssholes.

"I lost my brother's phone number, but since we talk to each other all the time, you must have it." "Can you give me the number of the nearest Pizza Hut?"

"Hey, I always kick myself about losing that phone number of that girl I met on the bus in college. Can you check my phone records for some time in April of 1988 for any long distance calls to southern Connecticut? And, then can you cross-reference that number to find her current number and see what's she up to now?"

those, too. And, her credit rating. You can't never be too careful." :evilgrin:

please send me a copy"

Nearly every week in our house, we place international phone calls to registered Communist Party members in mainland China.

your ass with your check before putting it in the envelope and address it to the CEO's office. Can get you in trouble with the board of health among other federal agencies.

etc... BTW I already do. Of course I have a peer guardian that's supposed to block government access but I doubt it works with the NSA. Most of my uploads are anti * stuff.

Answer every phone call with "Thanks for calling the Al Qaeda House of Holy Jihad Against the Great Satan Bush, how may I help you?"

:rofl:
