It's possible Bush requested the right for blanket domestic eavesdropping, was denied it, but still thought he had the right to eavesdrop on communications where one party is in the US and the other party is both outside the US and is expected to have ties to Al Qaeda.

As it turns out, they were eavesdropping on calls of Quakers in FLA and anti war demonstrators in Santa Cruz [among others], neither of which were getting calls from al Qaeda.
