The leaked NSA Inspector General report detailing the history of the domestic spying program reveals that neither the Department of Justice, the National Security, or the President's lawyers drafted the initial authorization to spy on Americans. The counsel to Vice President Dick Cheney, David Addington, drafted the first authorization sometime after the September 11 attacks and before mid-October.
