It wasn't passed during the "War on Terror." It was passed back in 1972 as part of the fallout from Watergate. Notice that MDixon "forgot" to explain why the fact that a warrant isn't required until 72 (not 48) hours after the wiretap starts doesn't eliminate the need for the administration to be able to wiretap without a warrant.
