Quick summary for those who haven't been following the news:

Last Thursday, it was revealed that in 2002 and 2003, top Bush administration officials, including the Vice President, the Secretary of State, the National Security Adviser, the Attorney General, and the head of the CIA, met and explicitly discussed and approved a series of "interrogation tactics", many of which I, and many others, would classify as torture.

On Friday, George W. Bush, in an interview on ABC, openly admitted that he knew of and approved those meetings.

The ACLU is now calling for the appointment of an independent prosecutor to investigate, and asking for help. They've set up a web page where you can fill in your name and address, modify the text of their standard letter, and send it to your Representative and Senators with an easy click.

It's easy to be cynical, and dismiss this as something that will never happen. But is that really an excuse to not even try?

Add your voice. Be heard.
