War is declared against nations, we have not done that even though we sling

He has said several things do not apply in objection to well over 500 in 
signing statements.  In the well over 200 years before only 75 signing 
statements were issued.  He and his string handlers do not feel laws apply 
to them and they are not afraid to tell us so.

One problem with a warrant is is that you need "probable cause" which they 
did not have.  Think about that for a while and about how badly misused the 
word terrorist is these days.

In one case already the lawyers have filed briefs asking if illegal 
wiretaps were used.
