It is early, I just woke up, but do I understand the news correctly?

I know torture was McCain, but I was on his side...

1. We're about to lose on torture. Graham-Levin amendment
in the defense bill guts the McCain legislation. Please visit this thread:

3. That was my question!
If you go to NWH's thread, you'll see that Reid has also signed off on this.

A deal was cut? This amendment purposts to apply only to current Gitmo detainees -- it's only furriners being tortured?
