This is a cause to help legalize same sex civil marriage in Portugal, something we expect to achieve after the October general election. Please join it and share it, as international support is very welcome in all human rights causes. Thank you very much!

Per the ACLU Michael Mukasey, the former US Attorney General who denounced President Obama's decision to release the "interrogation memos", approved a directive that allows FBI agents to investigate anyone they choose, so long as they claim they are acting to prevent crime, protect national security, or collect foreign intelligence, with absolutely no requirement of a factual connection between their authorizing purpose and the conduct of the individuals they are investigating - without any supervisory approval, reporting to FBI headquarters or the Department of Justice. The guidelines do not require the FBI to keep records regarding when "assessments" are opened or closed and have no time limitation. Innocence no longer protects ordinary Americans from being subjected to a wide range of intrusive investigative techniques. This gift from the Bush administration went quietly into effect on December 1, 2008.
