FTA: "The administration officials stressed that the updated system will include expanded due-process rights for the suspects, which administration officials note is consistent with what Obama pushed for as a senator in 2006 in order to improve upon the widely criticized approach created by the Bush administration."

"The military commissions are built on unconstitutional premises and designed to ensure convictions, not provide fair trials," Romero said in a prepared statement released earlier this week after speculation about the restart of military commissions surfaced. "Reducing some but not all of the flaws of the tribunals so that they are 'less offensive' is not acceptable; there is no such thing as 'due process light.' "

I don't see a problem with this? As much as I would love to watch all extreme religious fundamentalists burn, due process of law is consistent with the constitution. In essence, this is "change" as far as detaining terrorists goes.

As far as the fiasco about withholding detainee pictures, releasing them or not, it shows that torture happened. Who the hell cares, move on.
