Bush in bid to twist Republican arms on security - Yahoo! News

Bush in bid to twist Republican arms on security - Yahoo! News:

"McCain released a letter from Bush's former secretary of state,
Colin Powell, that said the 'world is beginning to doubt the moral basis of our fight against terrorism' and said he opposed Bush's bid to redefine the Geneva Conventions that require humane treatment of prisoners.

Back at the White House, Bush told reporters: 'We have proposed legislation that will enable the
Central Intelligence Agency to be able to conduct a program to get information from high-value detainees in a lawful way.'"
