Congress, Lawmakers Of America Rip-off of civil rights, be very aware Washington District of Columbia
From the ACLU:
This is VERY Important. We all need to stand up and fight for our rights.
Inform everyone you know and care about, the abuse of taking our civil rights away.
We overslept when they confiscated our right to PRAY nor mention GOD'S in the schools.
I don't know about you, but I don't want anyone watching me while I shower nor listening in on my private conversations.
This travesty has got to end and end now!
It's just doesn't make sense. There is no reasons we should cowardly back up, when it's our lives at stake.
This summer, the White House is pressuring Congress in a new attempt to dismantle the checks and balances that define our system of government.
New spying proposals drafted under d**k Cheney's supervision would expose our homes, cell phone records and email inboxes to new kinds of government spying that are currently completely illegal. Under Cheney's plan, for instance, this email - and any email - could be swept up and read by government spies, as long as officials did not know for certain where all the recipients were physically located.
I'm writing to ask you to join me and get involved now in the struggle to reclaim and preserve our fundamental civil liberties. If we don't stand up against these injustices, our silence will serve as an endorsement for a new America, founded on abuse of government power, not of freedom, liberty or the rule of law.
Please join me and sign up for the ACLU Action Network. You'll get timely calls to action on key issues, with easy steps to help people like us take a stand for freedom.
In the name of protecting a free country, our government is attacking our most basic constitutional freedoms, with abuses of power like illegal NSA spying, indefinite detention, torture and secret kidnappings by the CIA.
The ACLU Action Network is already helping to make a difference on issues like these, but the war against our civil liberties wages on. If we are to respond with strength, we must respond together. There's much we can all do to keep America strong, safe and free.
Please join me!

You CAN pray in schools! You just can't make others do it too.

FYI, you can still pray and mention God's name in the schools, so long as the prayer/god's-name-mentioning aren't endorsed/sponsored/forced upon others by the school. The Supreme Court has interpreted the "freedom of exercise" clause of the first amendment as requiring that students, and to some extent teachers, be allowed to express their faith in the school environment. But the "establishment" clause (the part of the first amendment that the fundamentalists seem to forget about) has been intyerpreted, via constitutional mechanisms, to hold that government entities cannot endorse particular religious beliefs. The fundamentalists like to argue that the phrase "separation of church and state" appears nowhere in the constitution, but to make such a statement evinces a rather crude understanding of constitutional law. The "exclusionary rule" is nowhere in the constitution either, but it was long ago deemed a necessary corrolary to the fourth amendment. In fact, the great bulk of Supreme Court cases are dedicated to figuring out what "side rules" are required for the effectiveness of the amendments. Are you aware of the ACLU's actual stance on this issue? Sorry for the rambling on a side issue there!
