Dear xxxx,

Today's news reports announce two disturbing developments in the Republican-controlled Congress:

1.
It does not plan to conduct its own investigation into possible violations of law by the executive branch, with regard to the NSA's warrantless eavesdropping on U.S. citizens.
2.
It is planning to pass legislation that rubber stamps the Bush administration's actions, after the fact -- likely killing any chance of independent, outside investigation.

Send an emergency fax to your members of Congress NOW! Tell them that legalizing ongoing executive branch lawbreaking is not what the Founding Fathers meant by checks and balances.

Activists like you, through People For the American Way, sent over 80,000 petition messages demanding the appointment of a Special Prosecutor to investigate what Congress refuses to investigate.

But if Congress reinstates Nixon-era standards of secrecy by passing legislation legalizing warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens, this administration will never be held accountable for laws already broken.

Send a fax now.

Please do not bother to oppose the current administration in their quest for absolute, dictatorial powers. Democracy is for wusses and it is really important that the president be able to spy on American citizens without judicial oversight or any silly Congressional meddling. Otherwise, the administration would be greatly inconvenienced in their quest to gain private information which can be used in the future to blackmail any silly wusses that oppose absolute dictatorship.
