The jet belongs to a part-owner of the Boston Red Sox, who told The Boston Globe that the team's logo was covered when the CIA leased the plane.

Yet another reason to pull for the Sox.

Yea for our team!

Hey Democrats! Here is something you can make a big issue of.

Go ahead and take it.

Make my day.

John Hutson and Margaret Satterthwaite should be given a free flight to Eygpt.

U.S. Navy secretly contracted a 33-plane fleet that included two Gulfstream jets reportedly used to fly terror suspects to countries known to practice torture

And here's to hoping we keep them filled to capacity and flying around the clock!

A branch of the U.S. Navy secretly contracted a 33-plane fleet

I don't understand this. Do they usually do contracts in the newspaper?

Btw, this is the 3rd or 4th article like this I've seen since February or so this year. Guess they'll keep running it until it gets traction.

[Uncle Joe Cannon]

The AP learned of the airplane contracts through a Freedom of Information Act request

Doesn't look like too big of a secret to me. I guess to the MSM, anything that isn't announced in a press release is a "secret".

Free vacation in sunny Egypt. SEE the pyramids! Spend time at our spa. Masseuse, personal trainers and more available. Then fly off to an all expenses paid stay at Club Gitmo.

Of course there's no real news in this story, but it's a neat little piece of propaganda to try to keep these old stories about "renditions" on the front burner. Probably timed to coincide with the "peace" march in DC this weekend in hopes of generating additional quotes by participants on this topic.

The adjectives thrown about in this story are entertaining, although the use of "luxury" before Gulfstream (probably mandatory in the AP stylebook) undercuts their theme by conjuring up images of terrorists sitting in overstuffed leather "comfy chairs" drinking scotch & sodas.

If the AP is not an "enemy combatant," then no one is.

About Damn time for some GOOD NEWS BUMP!

"It's not just a job, it's an adventure!"

Go Navy!

[F14 Pilot]

couldn't we torture them here at home?

[skinkinthegrass]

..and this is a problem?

[megatherium]

If a country like Iran did this to American detainees, we would hardly be so enthusiatic about this.

The United States is a country that cherishes rule by law, and this (if it is true) makes us hypocrites before the rest of the world.

Torture might bring short-term tactical advantages but in the long run is corrosive to our national interest.

I hope we hurt them...........a LOT!

Being a murderous, lunatic, militant Islamist -- should have horrible consequences..

A branch of the U.S. Navy secretly contracted a 33-plane fleet that included two Gulfstream jets reportedly used to fly terror suspects to countries known to practice torture, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

According to the AP, The U.S. is one of those countries!

[Plutarch]

While the AP disclosing this "secret" information provides direct aid and comfort to our terrorist enemies, it is as nothing compared to that singular National Security disaster, that veritable body blow to America's interests, the disclosure of the super secret identity of Valerie Plame.

[MNJohnnie]

They just keep recycling this story hoping it will grow legs. Hey AP, when the Clinton Admin was practicing snatch and grabs and doing the same think in Bosnia during the 1990s, where was all your hyperventalating then?

[cardinal4]

Im trying to feel bad about terrorists being tortured, really I am. But, alas, I just cant..
