Title: Congress to *Pardon* Bush ?

This week, the Senate is planning to quietly hold a vote    that would [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]pardon[/span]
President [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]Bush[/span] for breaking the [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]law[/span] by illegally    wiretapping innocent
Americans without warrants. According to Senator    Leahy, the bill would
"...immunize officials who have violated federal [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]law[/span]    by authorizing such
illegal activities."

President [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]Bush[/span] broke the    [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]law[/span], and courts are starting to agree. Judiciary
Committee Chairman Arlen    Specter once said the program was illegal "on its
face." But he has now    caved to pressure from Vice President Cheney, and
introduced legislation    that marks a new low: the bill justifies everything
the president did.    Worse, it makes it legal to wiretap Americans, in
secret, without warrants    or oversight, whenever the administration wants
to.

So far,    Democrats and some Republicans are holding strong against the
bill, and    there are good chances to stop it if enough of us speak up. Can
you sign    the petition opposing the Republican move to [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]pardon[/span] President
[span id="st" name="st" class="st"]Bush[/span] for    breaking the [span id="st" name="st" class="st"]law[/span]?

Wow!  I am shocked that a Republican controlled congress would pardon Bush.

  So this sends a message pretty clearly.  Its ok for the President to break the law, but its not ok to lie about a blowjob.
