A couple more FISA items
There will be more to come.
I've mentioned this before, but there's the moneybomb. Set to go off August 8. Sign up now, pay later. Please sign up, but that's not the main issue of this post.
Three things to do:
1) Add your name to an ad that the ACLU will be running at some point. The ad will announce a lawsuit the ACLU will file soon challenging the constitutionality of the FISA amendments. Very little information as yet, but tune in to firedoglake.com and I'm sure more will be forthcoming. Usually these things cost you money to be included, but this one appears to be free.
2) Donate to Regina Thomas (h/t progressiveelectorate) who's challenging Bush-dog John Barrow in GA-12. Primary is in less than a week, so donating now is crucial.
There are actually two pages at which you can donate. There is another page, where several tens of thousands of dollars hvae been raised for Regina. But please support the Progressive Electorate page -- get those donation numbers up. I'm heading over there to plunk down a little cash.
3) Become a monthly supporter of the ACLU as they fight on to try to get this abomination declared unconstitutional. Contributions now go toward making a $100,000 match.
All for now. More to come.

Thanks for this post. There have to be ways for us to take action when congress AND the adminstration are violating their oath of office...

Thanks. You're right. Thankfully, such ways exist, and I'm trying to give them some publicity. Please spread the word.
