Gonzales: Congress gave president authority. Congress confirmed president to use all appropriate and necessary force against AQ.

It is broadly worded. Our enemies operate secretly. In this new kind of war, it is necessary and appropriate to take all steps to know what enemy is plotting before they act.

How can anyone conclude it isn't necessary ato intercept phone calls from AQ?

The only alternative is for OBL to come before Congress and give them his plans so THEY can decide if POTUS is authorized to act. I really hate dems. Dangerous fools with microphones.
