Cairo: FISC _USED_ to handle foreign intelligence only. Under USA PATRIOT, it can now handle even ordinary criminal stuff as long as John Ashcroft says it's OK. This means all the shortcuts taken by FISC and supposedly usable only against foreign agents can now be used against US citizens with impunity. THAT is the danger.
