United States President George W. Bush is due to receive a subpoena for a wide range of information relating to National Security Agency wiretaps recently ruled illegal, according to documents obtained by RAW STORY. Two attorneys--one a Green Party nominee for Senate--earlier told RAW STORY that the subpoenaes, which may be read below, have already been dispatched, and should be arriving at the White House in the coming days. Aside from their accounts, RAW STORY cannot yet verify that the documents were actually sent. However, authorities in New Jersey have confirmed that activist attorneys Bruce Afran and Carl Mayer, who say they represent hundreds of plaintiffs in lawsuits against Verizon, have both been licensed to practice law in the state since 1986. Both are also widely known to be attached to the case. The subpoenaes, directed to President George Bush, the White House Office of Legal Counsel, the Department of Justice, and the Chief Legal Counsel for Verizon, seek a variety of information regarding "any ongoing or continuing, policy, contract, transaction, continuing transfer of data or records or other similar or analogous arrangement or understanding" betwen the US government and Verizon, Verizon Wireless, AT&T, BellSouth, Cellco, Sprint and Sprint Nextel. Mayer earlier explained to RAW STORY that the subpoena seeks to learn "whether the Bush administration has unlawfully targeted journalists, peace activists, libertarians, members of congress or generated an 'enemies list.'" The full subpoena may be read below. The original document may also be viewed in PDF format here. #

A cornered Bush could be dangerous and nasty. They all are Patricians, trained all of their lives to feel that they are the rulers of the country, and for a great part have been so. They will fight viciously for their privilidged position, that they feel is a divine right given to their families. I am serious about the above. This really how many of these people feel and believe.
of course it has...just like clinton's did when he was prez.

Watch Jorge file a motion to quash the subpoena(e) on the grounds that the issuing parties and attornies have no security clearances! It worked with Congress . . . . the court will not be amused.
