Freep Arlen Specter's office, all these Republican wimps office. These guys don't do their homework, I found this in an hour. The RATS come out with charges saying this is an impeachable offense and needs to be investigated but Bush followed the left wing court from 1979 precedent. I don't think this has been overturned either because Bank records and drivers license records are also not considered private either.

Wow. I agree with the three dissenting judges but on the surface this would appear to mean the established law is no expectation of privacy for any record kept about you that isn't physically on your property... finance records, phone records, Internet records ...anything.

It's been criticized, but as far as SCOTUS is concerned, it's still good law.

This entirely misses the point that there are numerous federal STATUTES that can be read to prohibit what the NSA is doing. Something doesn't have to be unconstitutional to be illegal.

Bush followed the left wing court from 1979 precedent. You're confused. Federal statute is what protects our privacy interest in our phone records. Fourth Amendment case law is irrelevant.
