Just Giving Geoff and Dan Something to Comment About UPDATED

From The New York Times: Federal Judge Orders End to Warrantless Wiretapping

Yeah, Yeah, I know. The ACLU found a judge that would give them the ruling they wanted.
District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor found that President Bush exceeded his proper authority and that the eavesdropping without warrants violated the First and Fourth Amendment protections of free speech and privacy.


EDITED: Removed some stuff after I realized I haven't the slightest idea what I'm talking about. I'll wait for the appeal. Until then, have your fun.

UPDATE: Patterico has a good rundown of conservative legal opinion on the ruling. If you care.
