I think the president admits the surveillance is outside of FISA.

Leahy was implying that the surveillance was illegal, not just outside of FISA.

Leahy was implying that the surveillance was illegal, not just outside of FISA.

In his mind, the two phrases are synonymous. I've been using the term "Constitutional" (or even more specific phrases) to describe the territory between FISA and whatever a president has to do to offend the constitution.
