Girlfriday acknowledged the mishandling in a torture case.

Secretary Rice acknowledged that the administration may have mishandled the case of Maher Arar. "We do not think that this case was handled as it should have been. We do absolutely not wish to transfer anyone to any place in which they might be tortured," she said

The Canadian government has apologized to Arar and agreed to pay him almost $10 million in compensation.

The Bush administration has not apologized. Arar's name remains on watch lists that forbid his entry into the United States.

Connie has bigger problems then the US committee hearings. The United Nations will be charging her with War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. Time to lawyer up. These torture cases will be what brings a guilty finding for the White House and Tony Blair.
