saying the program is legal (it is not ) but not enough attention is being paid to the nsa forwarding info to other le agencies,the fbi,irs,dea and those agencies doing parallel construction to hide the original source of the investigation

but I was floored that the solicitor general had given false info to the sc...that seems huge to me

either sg did really not know what justice department was doing or they lied in sc arguments...neither is acceptable
