Action Alert - Big Brother - PROWL
Permalink  
 


I just received this PUMA PROWL and thought I'd pass it on for anyone interested.

******************************************************

Dear Puma PAC,

Stand up to the White House's menacingly misguided attempt to monitor the free speech of American citizens.

From ABC’s The Note:

“Yesterday, White House director of new media Macon Phillips wrote a blog post urging readers to flag questionable claims about health care proposals."

As Republican Senator John Cornyn wrote in an email to the president urging him to end the Big Brother program,

"By requesting that citizens send “fishy” emails to the White House, it is inevitable that the names, email addresses, IP addresses, and private speech of U.S. citizens will be reported to the White House. You should not be surprised that these actions taken by your White House staff raise the specter of a data collection program. As Congress debates health care reform and other critical policy matters, citizen engagement must not be chilled by fear of government monitoring the exercise of free speech rights.”

This program is menacing and wrong, and it calls for action.

Please send an email to the White House instructing them to brush up on their Constitution.

Thank you and Good Luck,

Murphy.

1. Send an email to Macon Phillips, aka Minister of Information, at flag@whitehouse.gov

2. Copy these emails into the BCC of your email: prowl@pumapac.orghardball@msnbc.comcaffertyfile@cnn.com,comments@mclaughlin.comCavuto@foxnews.comLouDobbs@cnn.comhemmer@foxnews.comheadlinenews@cnn.com,Hannity@foxnews.comgretawire@fox.comcharlierose@pbs.org

3. Encourage your friends, family, and co-workers to send an email.

Use this email, or edit it as you see fit. Be sure to include the text of the First Amendment in your email. Short, sweet, and to the point.

Dear White House Minister of Information,

I am writing as a very concerned American citizen. I am also a member of Puma PAC, People United Means Action (http://pumapac.org). After reading about your program encouraging Americans to report instances of “fishy” speech by their sister and fellow Americans, we realized you had perhaps forgotten to read this before you got to the White House:

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Please brush up on the United States Constitution. It’s a rather important document, and it is especially crucial that people in your line of work are familiar with it.

Sincerely,
Your Name and State
Puma PAC Member

The Constitution--another document they didn't read! I've sent an email with my own words. I may need character witnesses at my trial; anyone?

Just kidding. I was tactful, that's all.
