James > Gore says Bush wiretapping could be an impeachable offense.(2) nytimes.com >>Two leading civil rights groups plan to file lawsuits Tuesday against the Bush administration over its domestic spying program to determine whether the operation was used to monitor 10 defense lawyers, journalists, scholars, political activists and other Americans with ties to the Middle East. The two lawsuits, which are being filed separately by the American Civil Liberties Union in Federal District Court in Detroit and the Center for Constitutional Rights in Federal District Court in Manhattan, are the first major court challenges to the eavesdropping program. Mr. Goodman [legal director for the Center for Constitutional Rights], acknowledged that in persuading a federal judge to intervene, "politically, it's a difficult case to make." He added: "We recognize that it's extremely difficult for a court to stand up to a president, particularly a president who is determined to extend his power beyond anything envisioned by the founding fathers. That takes courage."<< Any bets that they'll find a judge with "courage"?
