http://www.kplctv.com/Global/story.asp?S=3639522 Senate, White House disagree over treatment of terrorism suspects
WASHINGTON A bill setting Defense Department policy for the next year could put the Senate on a collision course with the White House. Senate Republicans have offered amendments to the bill setting rules for the treatment of terror suspects and delaying military base closings. That's in spite of the Bush administration's threat to veto the entire measure if any of those amendments are included. Talk of setting ground rules for the treatment and interrogation of detainees has percolated on Capitol Hill since last year when the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal in Iraq surfaced. Vice President Cheney met with the detainee provision's sponsors last week to voice the White House's objections. The Senate could vote on the amendments this week. Copyright 2005 Associated Press.
