WASHINGTON - The White House told lawmakers it would send Congress a revised proposal late Monday for dealing with terrorism suspects as the number of GOP senators publicly opposing President Bush's initial plan continued to grow.
A Republican-led Senate committee last week defied Bush and approved terror-detainee legislation that Bush vowed to block. Sen. John Warner, normally a Bush supporter, pushed the measure through his Senate Armed Services Committee by a 15-9 vote.
John Ullyot, a spokesman for Warner, said the Virginia senator expected to receive another draft of the legislation. No details were immediately available.

They could easily de-legitimize anything we do. They already have tried mightily.
This would put the terrorists in criminal courts, right where the liberal want them. Soros style!
We would be on our backs, trying to kick them off.
If Hillary IS the Dem candidate, in '08, and McQueeg runs as an Indy, he would draw the sort of centrist Dem votes.
one more SCOTUS appointment will stop that - better to play for that.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter said on Monday the Bush administration had eroded America's global influence with its conduct in Iraq and by condoning the torture of terrorism suspects.
"They have redefined torture to make it convenient for them," Carter said of the Bush administration in an interview with Reuters.
You've tried the soft gloves, and you're getting nowhere in an attempt to break up the latest attempt to bomb a school bus that is expected to carry my daughter.
I would say, against a non- uniformed Islamofacist, brutal torture is perfectly ok with me. In fact, keep the bastard alive as miserably long as you can, then threaten his family.
If it's a choice between an entire Islamofacist village or my child, the village has to go. They picked this fight, not us.
If your conscience bothers you about such things, then step aside and find a way to be uninvolved, or uninformed. That way you can sleep at night. Meanwhile, someone with instinct will get the information. And, while our children may not always end up perfectly safe, there will be one less village festering to kill one more innocent child.
This world is no longer a joke.
I'm still suffering from Perot Syndrome.

that would have happened already - and it hasn't. now you might be able to make a case that the same gang of 5 on the SCOTUS will come back and make such rulings, unless they get what they want from congress.
You shot at the wrong guy...LOL
It must be torture for Carter having a peanut sized brain.
Nobody really knows what the truth of the matter is. LOL
Me either. :-)
LOL --- I almost misread your post. Initially, I thought you said peanut sized something else.
OH! Right. The Canadian stuff.
But there is NO WAY AT ALL that McQueeg wins the '08 presidential primary. The grassroots HATE him and it's usually ONLY the grassroots who vote in primaries.
Those are called numb nuts.
