Daily Kos: Breaking News:  Obama Continuing Bush Policy re State Secrets In Torture Rendition Case

ABC just reported that at court hearing this morning, the Obama administration stated that it will adopt the Bush administration's arguments on an extraordinary rendition case:

A source inside [the courtroom] tells ABC News that a representative of the Justice Department stood up to say that its position hasn't changed, that new administration stands behind arguments that previous administration made, with no ambiguity at all. The DOJ lawyer said the entire subject matter remains a state secret.

Information about this case is below the fold from diary I wrote yesterday.
