The administration said it needed to act more quickly than the court could

Of course, the administration always leaves out the fact that it has 72 hours to get a retroactive warrant from a FISA court to cover any wiretaps.

and that the president had inherent authority under the Constitution to order warrantless domestic spying.

They just make it up as they go along, don't they?
