PRAY FOR ARLEN SPECTER? IF I GET A WISH IT'LL INVOLVE BUSH AND CHENEY NOT SPECTER. BUT JACK CAFFERTY DOES HAVE A POINT

I'm in NYC today and everything is different. My NY office is different from ny L.A. office inasmuch as the L.A. office has no TV. The NY office has a monstrous flat screen taking up half a wall. So here I am workin' on the computer and CNN is on behind me. There was so much news I heard-- and none about sorority girls from Alabama in Aruba.
One piece that shocked me was Jack Cafferty's little schpiel a couple hours ago. John over at CROOKS & LIARS has the video. Here's the transcript.
We all hope nothing happens to Arlen Specter, the Republican head of the Senate Judiciary Committee, cause he might be all that stands between us and a full blown dictatorship in this country. He's vowed to question these phone company executives about volunteering to provide the government with my telephone records, and yours, and tens of millions of other Americans.
Shortly after 9/11, AT&T, Verizon, and BellSouth began providing the super-secret NSA with information on phone calls of millions of our citizens, all part of the War on Terror, President Bush says.
Why don't you go find Osama bin Laden, and seal the country's borders, and start inspecting the containers that come into our ports? The President rushed out this morning in the wake of this
front page story in USA Today and declared the government is doing nothing wrong, and all this is just fine. Is it? Is it legal? Then why did the Justice Department suddenly drop its investigation of the warrantless spying on citizens because the NSA said Justice Department lawyers didn't have
the necessary security clearance to do the investigation. Read that sentence again. A secret government agency has told our Justice Department that it's not allowed to investigate it. And the Justice Department just says ok and drops the whole thing. We're in some serious trouble, boys and girls.

Let us hope this is the last straw for many who are biding their time before coming out aggressively against this administration.
Let us hope that THIS will be what raises the outcry we need to push this iron curtain back to where it belongs, in the past.
Let us hope someone somewhere still has enough influence to start something somewhere that will stop the evil that is Bush and his henchmen.
Anybody doing business with AT&T, VERIZON OR BELL SOUTH, you need to do the right thing and DROP their service. Send a message now, in a hurry. Don't wait. Pick up your phones and find another service provider.
Johnathan Turley, the famed constitutional scholar who has said over and over that the info concerning NSA spying is completely unconstitutional says that this new revelation is directly in line with a complete constitutional crisis!
Those of you who may have stock interests with these companies should sell! Sell now! Don't wait to see how the media spins it.
Speak with your dollars! Speak now!
