Protesters interrupt Senate Gitmo hearing
Edited on Mon Sep-25-06 04:53 PM by cal04
(Rawstory)

Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA) criticizes activists that stood up in protest at a hearing on the treatment of detainees at Guantanamo Bay prison. The Senate Judiciary Committee is considering whether detainees will only have limited access to habeas corpus review. At the end of the video, Specter stands up, bangs his gavel, and walks out of the hearing.

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan can also be seen in attendance at the hearing.
