Potential Evidence Surfaces of Bush's Illegal Spying

Where the hell is the mainstream media on this story?

This is a good example of why they are becoming irrelevant.

Potential Evidence Surfaces of Bush's Illegal Spying:

"An Oregon attorney may have proof of Bush's domestic spying operation - which means the illegal program's days may be numbered.

Five months after news of the NSA's warrantless spying program broke, and after we've learned numerous details of the program's extent, a Portland, Ore., attorney may have finally obtained hard evidence of illegal wiretaps by the government.

Thomas Nelson has been practicing administrative law for most of his professional life, but after Sept. 11 he first began offering pro bono work for immigrants detained in broad FBI terrorism sweeps. He is currently leading a little-discussed case that may contain the first documented evidence of an illegal wiretap and believes that, as a result, he himself has been subjected to warrantless - and therefore illegal - wiretaps and physical searches, the kind of clandestine operation that Nixon referred to as 'black bag jobs.' And as a result of extreme carelessness by the FBI, Nelson may have his hands on the only solid evidence of these searches.

The story begins in February 2004, when the Office of Foreign Assets Control froze all funds of the Oregon branch of the Saudi Arabian charity Al-Haramain. Attorneys Asim Ghafoor and Wendell Belew defended the charity against the government's allegations that Al-Haramain Oregon was taking part in terrorist activities."
