    Nothing much said on the right, so far

    Glenn Reynolds is okay with it, apparently:

    CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN: “The National Security Agency intercepted private e-mail messages and phone calls of Americans in recent months on a scale that went beyond the broad legal limits established by Congress last year, government officials said in recent interviews.” [instapundit.com]

    Nothing yet from the NRO's Corner, Powerline, Michelle Malkin, etc. - they're still basking in the afterglow of teabagging. Or maybe it's just that they trust Obama, Holder & DiFi.
