According to the Times, "The provision illustrates that the president's order to shutter foreign-based prisons, known as black sites, is not airtight and that the Central Intelligence Agency still has options if it wants to hold terrorist suspects for several days at a time."
More change we can believe in?
The Times notes: "The exception is evidence that the new administration, while announcing an end to many elements of the Bush 'war on terror,' is leaving itself wiggle room to continue some of its predecessor's practices regarding terrorist suspects."
Imagine that. There must be some dangerous people out there after all.
