AG to testify on warrantless wiretaps at Senate hearing

The US Attorney General is expected to testify on Capitol Hill at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing regarding the administrations use of warrantless wiretaps without going to the FISA court. The committee is particularily interested in Attorney General Gonzalez because he was White House Chief Counsel before becoming Attorney General. The Attorney General is expected to defend the presidents use of warrantless wiretaps on the grounds that he has constitutional authority, congress authorized all neccessary force in the War on Terrorism, FEISA court ill equipped to deal with certain wiretaps.
