Today promises only closed argument on the government's motion to have the military judge reconsider his order for extensive discovery into the CIA's RDI program.  (Open argument was held yesterday.)  We'll thus pause our military commissions coverage.  It remains to be seen whether tomorrow will feature open proceedings, or any proceedings at all; stay tuned.
