| A Government Spying On It's People |
| When President
Bush secretly authorized the National Security Agency (NSA) to spy
on Americans, he may have violated the Constitution and his oath of
office. His order was in clear violation
of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which was passed
by Congress in 1978 in response to revelations that former President
Nixon was using "national security" claims to spy on American
citizens he considered his "enemies." FISA made it a crime
to intentionally engage in electronic surveillance without court
approval. The president clearly violated the law when he authorized,
and then repeatedly reauthorized, the NSA to spy on Americans without
first obtaining a warrant. |
