As a follow up to my recent post (which was reposted from [livejournal.com profile] djinnthespazz) about President Bush's quote saying that wiretaps need a court order while apparently ordering warrantless wiretaps...

moveon.org is currently gathering electronic signatures for a petition on this very issue. If you are as concerned as I about the actions of the Bush administration, please consider signing this petition!!! Here is information from moveon:

Subject: The President Broke the Law

President Bush admitted to personally authorizing thousands of allegedly illegal wiretaps, and he doesn't plan to stop. Circumventing the Constitution is serious business. This is a big moment. People from across the political spectrum are standing together to protect the rule of law and the principles that are core to our identity as Americans.

Can you sign this petition to show Congress that Americans want a thorough investigation of the president's secret wiretapping program?

Unfortunately, any campaign by MoveOn.org calling for action against the President is likely to get as much attention as Rush Limbaugh slamming John Kerry; it's just not news. It becomes a story when Independents and Republicans also join in denouncing it. I'd keep an eye on Arlan Specter and John McCain, and lobby any other Republicans who profess to be against intrusive government.

If they got a lot of signatures...I mean a lot...they could get somebody to pay attention. It's worth a shot, AFAIAC.
