This isn't a domestic "wiretap/fibertap/broadcasttap" and since it is a program conducted by the NSA overseas and monitoring known or suspected terrorist calls to the United States, and everywhere else!
This is about military intelligence information gathering and NOT ABOUT CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS, domestically.
The judge is absolutely wrong to say that the commander-in-chief can't order intelligence gathering operations overseas . . . if it involves conversations with anyone in the US!
All the rest of the Leftist/Democrat propaganda is a lie, a misdirection to pander to the ignorance of the public and prey on their fears of government excesses.
The Leftist/Democrats are attempting to gain, politically, by demonizing our intelligence efforts against terrorists!
That is traitorous!
