The circumstances would matter. Was the surveillance target a US Person? If so, Bush could not have ordered it.

If not, this law had nothing to do with it. The President has had the power to electronically surveil non-US persons throughout the entire history of the Republic, and the FISA law does not infringe, nor further enable, that authority.

His surrogates have denied he ordered it. Now what?
