re: wiretapping: Orrin Hatch is a hypocrite

(well, nothing new there.)

"How funny that Orrin Hatch seems to think that Congress has no right to restrict the President's eavesdropping powers. I wonder why he voted in 2001 to amend FISA to define the restrictions on the President's eavesdropping activities if Congress has no right to regulate them. Voting for FISA seems to be an odd thing to do for someone who believes that Congress has no right to regulate the Executive's eavesdropping activities."

2. Congress doesn't need to restrict them.

The Constitution applies not just for the president, but to them as well. The Rehnquist Court narrowed or rights. It's just a matter of time until we all live in little cubicles where we are observed 24/7.
