So, if you are correct, why is it not being presented by anyone that this clearly was illegal?

Actually some legal scholars have said it was illegal and others say it was not. Most politicians, even the ones with a vested interest in seeing Bush out are mostly bitting their lips and asking for reviews. In reality, there is no way of knowing if it was or was not without the knowing specifics of the tapping instances.
Given the argument put forward by the DOJ it would appear that they are defending the warrantless tapping of U.S. Persons, so I would assume that is what they did/do.
