Spy Court Judge Quits In Protest - Jurist Concerned Bush Order Tainted Work of Secret Panel

McCain's point makes a lot of sense. Rockefeller has certainly not done well in all this.

Robertson indicated privately to colleagues in recent conversations that he was concerned that information gained from warrantless NSA surveillance could have then been used to obtain FISA warrants. FISA court Presiding Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, who had been briefed on the spying program by the administration, raised the same concern in 2004 and insisted that the Justice Department certify in writing that it was not occurring.

Interesting point. Apparently, the entire court is concerned about this one.
