The response from Congress over this fracas: not "We'd better make sure the CIA isn't violating human rights," but "OMG WTF BBQ find the leaker!" Shows you where the GOP's values are (for those who maybe haven't noticed before now).
EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini has warned that any European Union nation found to have allowed secret CIA prison camps to operate on their soil could have their EU voting rights suspended.

He said the operation of such camps on EU soil would violate the bloc's rules governing freedom and human rights.
