The spying DID brake the law..

an UNCONSTITUTIONAL law, thus no crime was committed.

Congress can't pass a valid law restricting the Presidents constitutionally granted powers, any more than it can pass a law repealing the bill of rights, it takes a constitutional amendment to do either.

Exactly, and with SCOTUS moving towards constructionist, we may see some correction if these issues are moved to the Court.
