What more needs to be said? "That's all. Thank you very much and have a nice day." Oh, I WISH....

Missed some stuff -- but appeals courts have found that FISA admits the president has constitutional authority to do whatever necessary.

Presidents throughout our history have used warrantless wiretapping.

Washington
Lincoln
Wilson - every cable in and out of US was copied
Roosevelt - authority to review cables and telecommunications between US and foreign country.
