The NSA surveillance under the Obama administration is completely different from the NSA surveillance under the Bush administration.

We, on the other hand, can point to such a judge. I'm not going to tell you who this judge is, or why he or she thinks our program is legal. If I did that, it would, obviously, be harder for me to convince you that the program is legal.

But I choose to believe that you elected me to be your president because you believe if someone has to secretly collect your data, that someone should be me."
