Complaint: Bush exceeded authority with warrantless wiretaps
(CNN) -- The American Civil Liberties Union on Tuesday said it had filed suit against the National Security Agency, alleging that its warrantless wiretapping program is unconstitutional and that President Bush, in authorizing it, exceeded his constitutional authority.

Funny that I just watched former Vice-President Gore comment on NSA spying - and then the lawsuit by the ACLU - it almost seems like a Tom Clancy movie the way this is all playing out.
