The Blogosphere at Its Best

John Hinderaker of Power Line has done an exhaustive analysis regarding the legality of the NSA wiretapping program.

Whether it's Rathergate, Hurricane Katrina, or the current wiretapping issue, I'm continually impressed by the ability of bloggers to be at the forefront of researching and explaining current issues in a comprehensive and coherent fashion.

The MSM usually doesn't attempt to do this kind of legwork -- often, I suspect, because the conclusions won't match up with the desired storylines.
