The President signed a six-month modification to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) on Sunday, after the Democrat-controlled Congress agreed to Administration provisions. The move was met by howls of protest from the ACLU and the left leaning punditry; and Speaker Pelosi moved to change the law before it was even signed. But is this law the end of the Fourth Amendment? And if it's so bad, why did Democrats vote for it? What are we talking about, anyway?

A clear explanation of why the existing law was ridiculous and had to be amended.

I have always wondered about the Democrat position “If bin Laden calls me, why should anyone care?” How does this help
them politically? Does Joe 6pack support this position?
