What is Obama thinking? How could he weaken so dramatically our protections against terrorism? ?

Doesn't he realize that without warrantless FISA wiretaps we could never have uncovered the plot to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge (how could we have gotten a warrant for conversations about the bridge when we didn't yet know that al-Qaida had it in its sights?) Has he forgotten that we only found the name of the operative who was tasked with destroying the bridge because we subjected Khalid Mohammed, the mastermind of 9/11, to "rough" interrogation techniques? Does he really mean to leave us vulnerable to terrorist attacks?
