The unconstitutional portions are the entire USA Patriot Act.
The Bush Administration was practicing just about everything in the Patriot Act before it went to the floor of Congress. That is what I said above, and it is true. Google "John Yoo" and "David Addington" and you will see what I mean. They are the ones who designed the warrantless wiretapping, they are the ones who authorized torture of prisoners in American custody. Just about the only organization that stood up to Addington and Yoo was the American Library Association. The librarians were braver than the FBI, NSA, CIA and the rest of the alphabet soup combined.
