2nd Delay Sought On Detainee Report

Justice Dept. Wants More Review

Justice Department lawyers told a federal judge yesterday that the disclosure of a hotly anticipated 2004 report by the CIA inspector general on the Bush administration's interrogation program for terrorism suspects will be delayed until shortly before the July 4 holiday weekend...

...At the same time, government lawyers sought an extension in a separate case seeking 35 Bush-era Defense Department documents related to detainee abuse and allegations of torture. In a letter to U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein, Justice Department lawyers said that "additional time is needed for consultation within the government regarding any potential release."....

....Separately, administration lawyers urged a federal judge late yesterday to dismiss a civil lawsuit filed against former defense secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and other Bush officials by the families of two detainees who committed suicide in 2006 after four years of imprisonment at Guantanamo Bay. The families allege that military leaders violated the men's constitutional rights.

Lawyers in the Justice Department's civil division argued that the former military officials are entitled to immunity under the law, and that the issue is "fraught with political and military concerns" and is "best reserved" for Congress.

Doesn't that seem like the last thing you'd want to release right before our national hoilday celebrating freedom and liberty?
