The National Security Agency Declassified...

well...'declassified', but you know what they mean...

http://www2.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB24/press20051219.htm 'President Bush's recent admission that he authorized the National Security Agency (NSA) to eavesdrop on U.S. persons without obtaining a warrant has focused the nation's attention on the authorities and regulations governing this sensitive issue. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) specifically prohibits domestic surveillance by the NSA, the nation's largest intelligence agency, unless it gets permission to do so from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.'
