#2 CongressCritters never like discovering that odious legislation also applies to them. I can recall a couple of times that they have been taken aback by this same revelation.

But don't worry guys, we need your emails to protect us from the "Terrorists".

#3 Don't worry, not much intelligence to glean from this congressional bunch? A few kernels in a mountain of chaff.

#5 This is a huge popcorn event. Now every person caught in some sort of torrid affair can blame the NSA for leaking it. How does the supream court communicate in private and their personal lives are now bait for the press.

The press now knows this info is out there. How long will it be until this stuff gets leaked, or how long have the leaks been going on? Lets say there is a press release that says republican candidate X has ties to terrorist or unsavory people. Do the FBI need to get a warrant to see his past email and phone conversations or can they get a secret one? They now have a data base to go to that is outside of going to verison or google. This will be fun....

It's not the 'intelligence'. It's the 'dirt'.
