NSA Eavesdropping is Bad, MMM'K?
Bless U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor from Michigan. She has ruled that the NSA eavesdropping program is unconstitutional:
[Taylor] further declared that the program "violates the separation of powers doctrine, the Administrative Procedures Act, the First and Fourth amendments to the United States Constitution, the FISA and Title III."I think we need to send her a big candy heart and a bunch of flowers.
She went on to say that "the president of the United States ... has undisputedly violated the Fourth in failing to procure judicial orders."
(The complete ruling can be found here.)
