Bing. There’s a surprise.

Colonel Haiku (84b87c) — 12/16/2013 @ 9:08 pmHo-hum, ok. If the Court of Appeals upholds him, the case will get to SCOTUS. Probably the only interesting question is whether Congress can take the constitutionality of FISA out of the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts under Article III. Because there is no Fourth Amendment. There is Fourth Amendment jurisprudence which is not the same thing at all. It is what five Supreme Court justices say from time to time.
Will Mar bury Madison? Will Mary land Smith? Will Dr. Kildare find happiness with Daniela Bianchi or will she return to Russia with love? Stay tuned for the next exciting episode of Days of Our Freedom Fries.
nk (dbc370) — 12/16/2013 @ 9:45 pmYou’d have to be insane to believe the NSA will let themselves be significantly constrained by the courts. They’ll use leverage to keep what they’ve got if necessary, and to expand it.
The only thing that might possibly work is widespread and sustained public outrage.
Former Conservative (6e026c) — 12/16/2013 @ 10:01 pmYep.
And the only way Congress does this is with the aforementioned, and unlikely, sustained public outrage.
Former Conservative (6e026c) — 12/16/2013 @ 10:05 pmThis will go to the newly-packed DC circuit.
Kevin M (536c5d) — 12/16/2013 @ 11:54 pmIf the case ever gets to SCOTUS, NSA will certainly prevail. The Chief Justice is in Obama’s pocket, and when he tugs on those strings Obama’s words come out of Roberts’ mouth. Obama owns Roberts.

It me means sunsetting bureaucracy, closing Departments, layoffs of several hundreds of thousands, in short undoing your bipartisan bestest efforts.
No one who does not run on this pledge alone will get my vote.

I have to disagree with Frances Martell at breitbart.com when she writes:
I’m even more puzzled why she doesn’t think our increasingly left-leaning government (or, plural, governmentS, local, state and federal) isn’t fostering peculiar trends like the following, which she wrote about yesterday:
^ I now realize it’s truly not a case of being snarky to say that our do-gooder laws have to be expanded to accommodate the status of bisexuals. Therefore, the need for polygamy is a given.
Kum-ba-ya, y’all.
