Gonzales defended Bush's decision not to seek warrants from the secretive Federal Intelligence Surveillance Court, saying that "we don't have the speed and the agility that we need in all circumstances to deal with this new kind of enemy."

then there must be no reason at all to renew the patriot act, since bush and the AG are going to ignore the 'ex parte' clause of it anyway.
Bush knows he broke the law. The PATRIOT ACT gave him the authority he needed to do these wiretaps and get the warrant after the fact, he just chose not to and therein lies the broken law.
