It is about surveillance for the purposes of gathering intelligence, not prosecuting criminals. For that reason, it is questionably an abrogation of executive power to require warrants for the purpose of surveilllance on a suspected enemy agent. It is an attack on the Executive branch's enumerated powers as commander in chief. BTW FISA stands for FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE SURVEILLANCE ACT.

We did suspend Constitutional protections during other wars. Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus during the Civil War. How do you think we caught the Chicago seven during WWII? They were German Saboteurs who were snuck ashore from a submarine off the Atlantic coast by German Sympathizers and were finally caught in Chicago. We caught them because we were opening and reading all mail leaving the US. The Constitution does not stop the US government from spying on foreign agents. How do you think we knew about the planned attack on the island of Midway? We cracked the Japanese code. If you want to see misuse of power, look at the Clinton administration. (Ever hear about the hundreds of FBI files on Clinton's political opponents ending up at the White House) The Kennedy administration was even worse. (Ever hear of the hundreds , even by the standards of the day, illegal recordings performed by the FBI while RFK was Attorney General?) If you want to see an abdication of Constitutionally mandated powers, see the Carter administration. The Church Commission gutted our intelligence gathering capacity overseas. Carter nearly destroyed what was left outside of eastern Europe. Carter and the Church commission were directly responsible for the Tehran Hostage crisis (ever hear of it? Mahmoud Imanutjub has been identified as one of the hostage takers.) The weak response from the Carter administration, which was complicated by our burning all of our intel sources in Iran, served to lead Islamists to believe that we didn't have the stomach for a fight. The wall of separation between intelligence and law enforcement agencies put into place by the Clinton administration prevented the intelligence community from informing the FBI that Mohammed Atta and other known terrorists were in this country prior to 9/11. Does anyone really believe that Sandy Berger was just "being sloppy" when he stuffed classified documents into his pants and socks, stole them from the National Archives, and then destroyed them? Why is his actions so much less important than the destruction of videos of two terrorist kingpins being interrogated? Especially considering that leaking the identity of the interrogators would put their lives and those of their families at risk? As far back as Thomas Jefferson, Congress was known for its inability to keep secrets, or rather the willingness of its members to leak classified information to the enemy for the purpose of personal political gain. Somethings haven't changed in over 200 years. As for the NSA monitoring overseas calls, they have the ability to do it without a single physical connection. It is perfectly legal for anyone to monitor radio transmissions. Remember the airwaves belong to the public. Seeing as virtually every international, satellite or cell phone call is transmitted as a microwave signal at one point or another, it enters the public domain at that point. To claim a right to privacy for any information gleaned from a radio transmission would be like claiming a right to privacy over something posted on the internet. As for the 4th amendment, I did well in my Con law class. I still have my textbook. Paul, you have a number of historical facts wrong. We did suspend Constitutional protections during other wars.
