In a nutshell, Judge Taylor claimed that under our Constitution, Hitchens’ right to never have his overseas telephone calls intercepted without a warrant trumps the right of Americans not to be blown to smithereens.
The only caveat the Judge probably has thrown into that decision is that her ruling is null and void if their is a Democrat in the Office of the President at the time the phone taps are on-going.

No kidding. It's amazing how the meaning of the Constitution changes for some people when administrations change.
