Two Groups File Domestic Spying Lawsuits
An anonymous reader writes "The Center for Constitutional Rights and the ACLU both recently filed lawsuits, in New York and Detroit respectively, claiming that President Bush's electronic eavsdropping program is illegal and exceeds his constitutional powers. From the article: 'The Detroit [ACLU] lawsuit, which names the National Security Agency and its director, said the program has impaired plaintiffs' ability to gather information from sources abroad as they try to locate witnesses, represent clients, do research or engage in advocacy.'
I always knew lawyers were terrorists.

You're suggesting apples should be allowed to just wander around toting machine guns?
I also love righteous patriotic masturbation sessions.
USA!! USA!! USA!!
The ACLU is bad because Bill O'Reilly told me so!
USA!! USA!! USA!!
Other countries criticize us because they're jealous of all our freedoms.
USA!! USA!! USA!!
Tinfoil hats are 2 for 1 at Costco today.
Now, I've heard a lot of talk among people of the ACLU being a crazy leftist organization
Its funny how the world changes. Being a "righty" or conservative usually meant you were all for smaller government and less government envolvement.
Heres my list on how to be a good Republican. All you have to do is hate everyone on it:
1) Hillary Clinton (satan lives)
2) Bill Clinton (mini-me)
3) NPR
4) ACLU
5) PBS
6) CNN (go watch real news over at Murdock's Fox News)
7) Any actor or actress with a political view that is not Arnold
8) Courts (they legislate from the bench you know)
9) People who sue other people or companies
10) Christians (they are hard to convert to Protestants, can't figure out birth control, and listen to people who sleep with young boys).
11) Any female who is rich and famous on her own (ie Martha Stewart)
12) Any one who talks about racism in America (only white males are oppressed)
13) People who view Iraq as a losing cause
14) People who worry about being spied on by our government (they are hiding something anyways)
Please feel free to add to my list...
