And just who appointed this giant of judicial intellect to the bench?
Start the countdown for this reporter's career at the NYT........
It's pretty bad when this is the best the Slimes can do in spinning this decision (their op-ed doesn't count since it was fact-free).

More than twenty five years later, America is still suffering from the Jimmah Carter's mistakes.
A tendentious, reckless and fatuous judicial ruling forces this country into harms way by maintaining the 2001 legislation to use all necessary and appropriate force did not include electronic surveillance. However, communication intelligence has been a precondition to, and inherent within successful military operations at least since Sun Tzu discussed foreknowledge over 2,000 years ago. Through four presidents and 15 major terrorist attacks, we fled into illusions war was not declared upon us. This ruling perpetuates such derangements.
A barbaric pestilence arising from Muslim heresies seeks to consume us, and we are squandering a precious, perishable opportunity to thwart extraordinarily creative and lethal initiatives. The technological barriers to abundant human slaughter have fallen. Production of chemical and biological weapons can now be accomplished in cottage industries, or produced in duel use facilities, resembling creameries and breweries. For nuclear weapons, now fifty-year old technologies produced the Davy Crockett missile firing a 51-pound warhead yielding .01-kiloton, and the Astor nuclear torpedo carrying a Hiroshima size warhead. The Islamic cults, which infected Muslim faith within the 20th-Century, perceive human death as both means and end for their orthodoxy. They do not postulate a viable remnant for infrastructure or people, even including their own families, tribes and countries.
The Constitution, properly understood, assumes a viable, organized society housing civil liberties, and vigorous Commander in Chief powers, not encumbered by unrestrained dogma, to counter at inception these looming, incalculable miseries.
