This court definitely is favorable to the NSA and other intelligence agencies. Perhaps the time has come to change the laws governing the FISA court. Nothing wrong with that. In fact, I'd be for eliminating these mass surveillance programs altogether.

However, until laws are change by our elected representatives, we have to live with the fact that what the NSA did was legal and by the book.
