Harry Reid: Shame or Disgrace?

AT&T has asked a court to suppress documents leaked to the Electronic Frontier Foundation by an ex-employee detailing how the company indiscriminately diverted domestic and international traffic to the National Security Agency for warrantless wiretapping:

AT&T built a secret room in its San Francisco switching station that funnels internet traffic data from AT&T Worldnet dialup customers and traffic from AT&T's massive internet backbone to the NSA, according to a statement from Klein.

Klein's duties included connecting new fiber-optic circuits to that room, which housed data-mining equipment built by a company called Narus, according to his statement.

Narus' promotional materials boast that its equipment can scan billions of bits of internet traffic per second, including analyzing the contents of e-mails and e-mail attachments and even allowing playback of internet phone calls.

Eventually Klein blew the whistle saying that, "We all remember Big Brother, and suddenly there I was hooking everyone up to the Big Brother Machine."

Harry Reid failed us and he violated his oath of office, the oath he took to "preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States of America from enemies foreign or domestic."

So, ask the two Democratic candidates if they would push to replace Reid immediately upon taking their oath of office.

Pelosi also!

 

I know you've singled out one issue as your point for removing Reid from majority leader, but I would'nt give Pelosi a pass for doing the right thing on this one issue. In my article "When will Pelosi be replaced", I pointed out several reasons why she should be replaced now. Let's do it to all the leaders who've betrayed the voters.

Yep

I'm with you on that one. After all, Pelosi is the "impeachment is off the table" traitor.

He Is Far From Alone

Harry Reid is far from being alone for shameful and disgraceful actions in Congress.

It would be simpler to list those who have upheld their Oath of Office.
