Impeach Bush Now! The Spying is to Protect Us: Just Another Lie

Bush continues to claim that the spying is to protect us, yet look at all of these stories where the targets are Grannies, Quakers, peace groups, anti-war protests, Catholic Workers, etc.... Are these groups a threat to "national security"? Are they planning an attack on fellow citizens- or are they a threat to the war machine?

• California National Guard Suspected of Spying on CodePink and Raging Grannies
• Letter From a Military Mom: Domestic Spying & Incident of Intimidation of Military Families
• New Documents Show FBI Spying on Domestic Activist Groups including Greenpeace and Catholic Workers
• Police Spies infiltrate, lead anti-war protest
• Anti-War Group Has Documents Proving NSA Spied on Them
• Police Infiltrate Protest Groups, Incite Violence: innocent Americans beaten while infiltrators slink away.
• Pentagon spying on Peace Groups, even Quakers & worst of all-

they hired Lockheed Martin and Northrup Gruman to do some of the spying!
The military-industrial complex, the war machine, now has the freedom to spy on all Americans- paid for by our very own tax dollars.

Is this to stop terrorists, or to identify dissenters that may impede the war machine?
But surely there’s no room for abuse, they can’t just spy on anybody... well, actually, the decision on who to spy on was left up to a shift supervisor.

Recall that at first the White House has said it is limited to international calls between U.S. residents and individuals overseas suspected of having ties to al-Qaida.

Then the AT&T whistleblower exposed that all domestic email and phone calls were being filtered through the NSA’s special rooms located in telcom hubs across the US.

The secret room also included data-mining equipment called a Narus STA 6400, "known to be used particularly by government intelligence agencies because of its ability to sift through large amounts of data looking for preprogrammed targets"

The NSA’s stated goal was "to create a database of every call ever made". Another headline read, NSA spy program broader than Bush admitted... and Congress did nothing.

Unbelievably, Attorney General Gonzales, Top Spy Negroponte, and Pretensident Bush have all been caught lying about this spying program.

• Gonzales Lied at Confirmation Hearing
• Negroponte lied 3 days before the wider story broke
• Bush lied to his supporters on the campaign trail, then again when the story broke

They have all been Caught Red Handed - government officials Caught Lying about the most important aspect of America- our Freedom. They have been exposed. Yet the media just covers it up, and everyone pretends that if they had really been caught, then surely somebody would have done something... but it’s now clear that DC Politicians are too cowardly.

In short, it’s clear that when Bush and Co say the spying is to protect us- it’s just another lie. Now lets force the mainstream media to cover it!
