FISA Court Judge Favors Release of NSA Order
The Bush administration has refused to release any part of the order issued yesterday by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court authorizing NSA surveillance within the United States, saying doing so would risk exposing operational details.
It's not a consensus opinion: The presiding judge of the court says that if it were up to her, she saw no problem with sharing the order with Congress. But since the order contains "classified information," she says that it's up to the Attorney General to give the green light.
The letter was in response to a letter Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy (D-VT) and Ranking Member Arlen Specter (R-PA) sent yesterday asking for copies of the order.
The AP has more.






The circle of life continues.

Its time for the Dems to impeach that smarmy, cocky little midget bastard aka illegal alien Alberto V05 Gonzales.
Ask me how I really feel.....

Waiting in Texas...I am too. Totally agree with you, but I prefer to call him Abu Gonzales.

Personally, I'm not into dehumanizing Alberto Gonzalez. On the other hand, I look forward to seeing him as a defendent in an upcoming impeachment proceedings.

Keep hauling his ass before various committees. Let Biden talk at him for 6 hours or so - that'll get the little bastard talking.

When Gonzales refuses to answer question or supply information to COngress then throw the bastard straight into jail for contempt.
Do it a few times and see how quick he and others fess up.
