"FISA"- Transparent, Yet Secret?

How could Buckwheat possibly make a statement as ridiculous as this?

Obama said that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court "is transparent." We don’t doubt that there are good reasons for secrecy at the court, but if you’re going to operate a mostly secret court, you also don’t get to crow about how "transparent" it is. The president can’t have his cake and eat it, too. We rate his claim (insert:"Lie") Pants on Fire.

Get with the program Mike, compared to how "TRANSPARENT" the most transparent Administration in the history of the country is, FISA is Transparent. :wink: It is all in what the word IS means again.

Thinking about FISA and how the NSA supposedly has to get a court order from them to listen in on US citizens calls and read their emails, but I don't see what it matters if they get a court order at all. IF Holder and the DOJ can see nothing wrong with lying on a request for Court Orders, what is saying the FISA Court is not getting the same kind of lie filled requests on behalf of the NSA? From what I hear there has been very few FISA requests turned down so who really knows who the Obama Administration is spying on with those FISA Court Orders in the so called name of terrorism.
