7 Days According to Patriot Act
I'm surprised none of us has noticed this before. I went to check out the story about the Patriot Act being renewed, and I saw a CNN overview of it. Follow the link and look for Interactive:Patriot Act Overview.

The part that caught my attention was about 'Detention and Jail'
Wouldn't this apply to gitmo, since the people held there are being called terror suspects and not POWs?

The people being held in Gitmo aren't just poor muslims that were in the wrong place, at the wrong time.
Maybe charges have been filed against some/all of them?
