Democratic members have requested a formal review of interrogation and detention practices by the U.S. - Newsday.com - AP Washington

Newsday.com - AP Washington:

"Republicans and Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee failed to agree Tuesday on whether to open a formal investigation into U.S. interrogation and detention practices.
..................

Rockefeller said the committee is 'not facing its oversight responsibilities with sufficient seriousness' on subjects that will be affecting the country for the next 30 to 40 years.

All seven of the committee's Democratic members have requested a formal review of interrogation and detention practices by the U.S. intelligence apparatus. The Democrats also want to look into 'renditions' -- a practice of transferring foreigners to another country for detention and questioning."
