On Monday, MoveOn.org's political action committee will launch a nationwide ad campaign that compares recent revelations about the NSA secret wiretap program to Watergate. A massive ad buy on CNN is expected to give the spot special attention.

The ad features former President Nixon saying, "When the President does it, that means it's not illegal," and morphing into George W. Bush.

At the end of the ad is a call for a special prosecutor to investigate the wiretap program.

MoveOn has supplemented the advertisement with a release citing legal arguments against and criticism of the NSA spy program from prominent journalists, legal experts and conservatives, among others. RAW STORY plans to make this available shortly.

Also you will need Quicktime to view ad/video

22. Wonderful ad from Moveon

Hope it gets lots of press. Unfortunately, lots of pugs consider Nixon to be a hero. It was those damn dems who done him in, doncha know?

[gkhouston]

23. *Excellent* ad

Great morphing, and doesn't oversell the point. I'm sure there are some diehard Nixon-worshippers left in the world, but for the majority of America, making the Bush=Nixon connection will be a devastating blow to this administration.
