Hey Dana, you forgot one!!!
Houston, Tex.: Dana, aside from Congressional a brow-beating in the up-coming hearings, what might be done to limit the President's 'terrorist surveillance program' or force it to be brought under FISA?

Dana Priest: Several options: Congress could amend the law on the request of the administration, or on its own; the current secret program could be challenged in court. The political heat could become too great, and the president could announce that he's not doing this anymore. The other option, I must point out, is that this goes no where and that there's a little more reporting and oversight behind closed doors and the concerns subside.

Hey Dana! You forgot: "The elected officials in Congress can impeach his ass for authorizing countless federal felonies with full knowledge of the illegality of his actions."
