Did Justice Dept subpoena AP records under authority of the FISA act passed by Congress? [View all]

If so, who is really to blame?

It sounds bad but was it done in a legal manner? If so, we can see just how far we have gone with the Patriot Act and the FISA laws, etc.

I think maybe we should withhold judgement until we know more of the facts?
