Chavetz can be such an idiot.

Let's ask all those Reporters from the past 8 years who were "investigated" by DOJ without warrants. Let's look at the new titles.

The FBI as of the last December, under the Obama administration, were given direct access to all DoD and allied collection with no attempt at developing an oversight body; further, the FBI would only ask for a warrant if they wanted to take data or collection into court at some point given they have something meaningful as evidence. This is clearly true given the fact that US citizens' phone conversations with other country leaders were leaked to the mainstream media. Revisions of the Protect Americans Act, FNA the Patriot Act. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/16/washington/16cnd-nsa.html?_r=1&em&ex=1195448400&en=0223a25af8b39a09&ei=5087%0A&oref=slogin Many news reports have focused on Section 215 of the Patriot Act (used to collect all Americans' calling records) and Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Amendments Act (FAA) (used to collect phone calls, emails and other Internet content) as the legal authorities supporting DoD title 50 authorities. Both laws were passed by Congress and are overseen by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA Court or FISC). However, the Intelligence Community conducts much more of its eaves dropping under the President's inherent powers and only governed by a document originally approved by President Reagan titled Executive Order 12333.

The ACLU was all over the PATRIOT ACT since its inscription when George Bush's Administration tried to enact surveillance of terrorist cells here in the US. Not a peep out of the ACLU since BHO took over in 2008 when cases like this were more rampant. The Obama Administration defended the expanded use of the PAA without any opposition from the liberals: http://www.pcworld.com/article/168502/article.html

Also, let's not forget Operation FAST AND FURIOUS, where certain journalists' civil rights were violated by Eric Holder's DOJ. There's also the ‘John Doe’ Wiretaps DOJ enjoys using that circumvent warrants. Those were started in 2011, which constitutes improper use of surveillance techniques in an investigation where the FBI had obtained "roving wiretap" authority. How do you get "roving wiretap" authority!? Please see

There were many more efforts during the Obama Administration to curb civil rights: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/09/27/AR2010092706637.html
