Don’t read too much into Obama ‘no enemy combatant’ decision

Groups such as the ACLU and the Center for Constitutional Rights says it means little to moderate difference from BushCo policies, so far.
“It appears on first reading that whatever they call those they claim the right to detain, they have adopted almost the same standard (as) the Bush administration ... with one change, the addition of the word 'substantially' before the word ‘supported,’” the Center for Constitutional Rights said in a written statement. “This is really a case of old wine in new bottles.”

This is yet another thing that the MSLBs won’t tell you, though.

Anyway, let’s see actions match verbiage.
