LAT bad mouths 6th Circuit

In an editorial today, the LAT argues that the 6th Circuit was wrong to rule for the Bush administration in the NSA surveillance case, mainly because it didn't like the result. The LAT argues for ignoring the standing requirement because it prevents them getting the decision they want. In truth, the lawsuit was a trumped-up case tried at the District Court level by a judge handpicked by the plaintiffs to get the desired result without proving any actual injury. The 6th Circuit put a stop to it, thankfully.
