Oregon Report — Monday, February 6, 2006

Speak out against Bush’s illegal domestic spying

Page 2 of today’s O. has a wire story (closest version I could find online is here ) with the welcome news that Arlen Specter “challenged the legality of the Bush administration's domestic surveillance program yesterday, saying the White House's case for tapping phones without a warrant is "very strained and unrealistic." The comments marked the toughest criticism yet of the program from an influential Republican.”

Today’s Senate hearings feature “Torture Guy” Gonzales defending the Administration’s breaking the law. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11199689/

Our own Senator Wyden recently grilled intelligence officials whose non-answers spoke volumes: http://thinkprogress.org/2006/02/03/intel-stonewalling/

Please take a few minutes and speak out:

Contact your local paper
Contact your elected representatives

Never give up.
