Judge Anna Diggs Taylor

Judge Anna Diggs Taylor is the Michigan US District court judge who has ruled that GW Bush's secret wiretapping/spying program is unconstitutional.

The defendants “are permanently enjoined from directly or indirectly utilising the Terrorist Surveillance Programme in any way, including, but not limited to, conducting warrantless wiretaps of telephone and Internet communications, in contravention of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and Title III”

So one, or both, of two things will happen next. She will be swiftboated as someone who hates America and loves the terrorists and/or the 6th Circuit court will overturn her decision. The decision almost certainly has to be overturned because if it is not, then GW Bush is almost certainly guilty of breaking many Federal laws. And, if that is the case, then impeachment proceeding must begin.

There is an excellent review of this finding by lawyer Glenn Greenwald HERE. Mr. Greenwald points out:

Even with this Order, the Bush administration is free to continue to do all the eavesdropping on terrorists they want to do. They just have to do so with approval of the FISA court -- just like all administrations have done since 1978, just as the law requires, and just as they did when eavesdropping as part of the surveillance they undertook on the U.K. terror plot.
