Add this footer to your outgoing emails
Just received an email from someone you would all recognize. His signature has this little ditty:

NOTICE: Due to Presidential Executive Orders, the National Security Agency may have read this email without warning, warrant, or notice. They may do this without any judicial or legislative oversight. You have no recourse nor protection save to call for the impeachment of the current President.


I'm going to plagerize and add it to mine. Anyone else?

2. Here's the one I've been using (hi, paine!):
NOTICE: Due to Presidential Executive Orders, the National Security
Agency (NSA) may have read this email without warning, warrant, or
notice. They may do this without any judicial or legislative oversight.
You have no legal recourse, nor protection from this intrusion on your
personal freedoms. You may not review your file which is secret.
The President reserves the right to use "signing statements" to give
himself permission to ignore the law, as he is above accountability.

11. Please be my guest! I didn't 'create' it, but it was given freely

awhile back on DU.

Edit to add: I also center, bold, and send the statement in blood red. :hi:

9. I think I would add this:
instead of the part about impeachment, I'd put a line that says: "Please do not send me any emails that contain the words Bush, Terror, Bomb, Threat (etc, whatever the "buzz" words are that trigger their detectors, but spelled out in the email) because it will certainly result in a visit to both of our doors by agents of the Secret Service, and I'm just too busy for that"

Especially send this to those people you know who tow the line of: "I don't care because it doesn't affect me" -- MAKE it affect them! lol

13. "it can't happen here"
You got that right. It's unbelievable the level of apathy and ignorance. The sheeple need to be educated this way, by roadside blogging, leaflets inserted into waiting room magazines, word of mouth.....every way we can.

to make a statement while we still have it!

12. It's already on mine
I have had a few comments about it already. Only one bad so far and that was from my niece who doesn't know any better. I've tried to clue her in. She agrees with me but will not do a thing about it. Go figure. She's scared I think. :scared:

15. I added a little something... about the constitution...
NOTICE: Due to Presidential Executive Orders, the National Security Agency may have read this email without warning, warrant, or notice in violation of the United States Constitution. They do this without any judicial or legislative oversight. You have no recourse nor protection save to call for the impeachment of the current President.


Howdy paine! :hi:
