6. This says what needed to be said

snip>
I have concerns about the legality of the actions taken by the President and the NSA. The Administration claims that Senate Joint Resolution 23, signed into law on September 18, 2001, provided legal justification for the NSA's surveillance program. However, there is no mention of domestic surveillance in the joint resolution. Reports from the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service have also raised serious questions about the program's legality.
