WAS the RNC/Bush/McCain campaign wiretapping these kids?
Why would the Police/Sheriff Office harass the homes of these protestors, prior to any "protest" without being told by the GOP to do so? The Republican Party is responsible for this harassment. I mean, ARE we to believe that police/sheriff office "peace officers" were reading or listen in on the chat rooms of "Food not War"? Who tip off the police/sheriff personnel to go and harass protestors?
The Republican Party tip them off, that's who told these law officers to do this deed, along with judge(s) who complacently issue warrants for what exactly I wonder? Did the judge(s) issue a warrant for "conspiracy to commit riot" on the Food no War group without expecting these bust not to turn into a constitutional issue? I mean WTF is going on here?
It shows how Sen. Chuck Schumer has been involved in aiding the Republican Party by making sure he got another Gonzales like AG for Bush with Schumer's pick of Michael Mukasey and tell Americans that the US Constitution doesn't poll well - that's bullshit - Schumer is helping this damn Administration. I suggest Glenn use his ActBlue and Moneybomb funds for Sen. Schumer ASAP because that guy isn't the friend of Democrats.
And like I said before, the Republicans, the Bush Administration are not simply wiretapping terrorist alone, they are wiretapping protestors - Bush is running his wiretapping operation just like he ran the DoJ, with extreme prejudiced and calculated hatred. The Bush administration has done so many acts of bad faith with all the very real evidence we already have of how state attorneys got fired for failure to pursue bogus lawsuits? After Bush tried to prosecuted Democratic officials for bogus crimes certainly we can see how harassment of protestors would merely be a skip in the park. Karl Rove and this administration were very serious with their liberal hate factor. SO WE NEED TO GET IMPEACHMENT BACK ON THE TABLE BEFORE we end up having another Kent State like episode, as we're getting awfully damn close to the same kind of situation right now.
Barack Obama, having giving his okay for Bush to wiretap, without the slightest interest in looking at evidence of what precisely this administration has actually doing, and with Obama being a Constitutional lawyer and all - its reason enough NOT to vote for Obama. Yes, yes, I know McCain is worse, but Obama doesn't care enough about democracy to be a US President and picking between two men that care nothing for US Constitutions isn't a good reason to vote for either one them.
