Funny how you totally disregard the poll I posted, presumably because it's results didn't fit to your pre-concieved opinion, yet this one you whole heartedly believe because it fits your opinion. Funny how that is.

"on CNN's The Situation Room, legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin conveyed that "this was a very liberal judge" who "almost exclusively cites other liberal judges." Toobin informed viewers that the case was likely to be overturned as he was "certain that other courts will see this differently." http://powerlineblog.com/archives/015041.php "John, who is on vacation, has delegated to Scott and me the task of "dissecting" the district court opinion that strikes down the NSA's intercept program as unconstitutional. In a sense, however, there isn't much to dissect. The opinion is almost devoid of analysis on the key constitutional provisions it relies upon (the court more or less ducks the issue of whether the intercept program is consistent with FISA and completely dodges the issue of whether the president has the inherent power to authorize the intercepts; it reasons that the Constitution trumps the statute and that the president lacks the inherent power to violate specific constitutional provisions). It is part of my job as a litigator (and has been for more than 30 years) to read and understand judicial opinions. Off hand, I cannot recall reading an opinion as conclusory and content free as the key portions of this opinion. |

but yup, it may well be overturned on appeal, but that doesn't mean it's not worth noting. |

I don't think he was attacking the judge or her ruling, just pointing out the fact that hers is a liberal interpretation of the law. |

Judicial Watch argues that Judge Anna Diggs Taylor had a conflict of interest in the NSA surveillance case because (1) one of the plaintiffs was the ACLU, (2) Judge Taylor is a Trustee of an organization that donated tens of thousands of dollars to the ACLU, and (3) the organization states that its donations are approved by its Trustees, thus indicating that Judge Taylor was personally involved in directing resources to the very advocacy group that came before her.
Even a NYT liberal legal ethics scholar Stephen Gillers concedes..... http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/23/wa...erland&emc=rss
