[Senator] DeWine is calling for legislation that would explicitly authorize the wiretapping and exempt it from the 1978 law that created the intelligence court to review classified applications for wiretapping inside the United States. The White House has embraced that concept, because it would take away the uncertainties of judicial review. (emphasis added)Uncomfortable uncertainties such as:
a) "No Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause" (the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution)
b) "Nor shall any person be...deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law" (the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution)
c) And "the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury" (the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution)
Perhaps the President should recall his position on the U.S. Constitution
