Administration appeals; attorney general says 'program is lawful'
"(CNN) -- A federal judge on Thursday ruled that the U.S. government's domestic eavesdropping program is unconstitutional and ordered it ended immediately.
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said the Bush Administration disagrees with the ruling and has appealed.
'We also believe very strongly that the program is lawful,' he said in Washington, adding that the program is 'reviewed periodically' by lawyers to determine its effectiveness and ensure lawfulness."
