There is no section in our constitution's system of checks and balances that gives the legislative branch of government powers to restrict the ability of the commander-in-chief to gather intelligence on the actions of our enemies during wartime.

In addition to that, international electronic communications have been fair game for the intelligence gathering agencies of every nation on earth since the dawn of international electronic communications.

It's the supreme court's job to determine whether the FISA law is unconstitutional. As it stands now, the president very clearly BROKE that law.
