A Pre-Speech Q About Bush's Detainee Announcements

CNN Breaking News sent me this announcement: "ABC News: President Bush to announce that detainees held at secret CIA prisons, including alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, will be transferred to the Department of Defense and granted protection under the Geneva Conventions."

One question: How can these detainees receive a fair defense when any and all of their confessions, to date, should not be used in a proper court of law because the confessions were obtained through various forms of torture?

Bush's speech is to start in two minutes...http://tinyurl.com/jbgqj
