Report: Bush Spy Case Weak

From WaPo: a report from Congress' bipartisan research arm finds the administration's legal justification for the NSA spy program wanting. $Q:
"It appears unlikely that a court would hold that Congress has expressly or impliedly authorized the NSA electronic surveillance operations here," the authors of the CRS report wrote. The administration's legal justification "does not seem to be . . . well-grounded"
Raw Story has the full document here. Helpful in that it runs through a lot of the cases the right wing are trying to cite in the President's defense.
