Inode,
To suggest that federal judges are somehow final arbiters of what is and is not "legal" is sorta naive
There is nothing naive about it. These hypocrites are coming up with excuses that would have made no difference in whether they would have objected to Bush doing it.

Don't get caught up in this red herring. Argue from the standpoint of clear boundaries between public and private information. Personally I would have assumed that even our phone records can remain private without a court order, but I guess that assumption is now thrown out of the window.

Let's not forget that if the NSA can snoop our phone records, so can the IRS. And we all know there are "rogue agents" in the IRS targeting conservative groups, which the White House has NO CONTROL OVER, LOL ...
