S. O'BRIEN: There was a report last week in the "Washington Post" that talked about these secret prisons in Europe.
MCCAIN: Yes.
S. O'BRIEN: Are you aware of these prisons?
MCCAIN: No.
S. O'BRIEN: Not at all?
MCCAIN: I did not know anything about it.
S. O'BRIEN: Which means what, then? I mean if other senators -- are you going to start hearings on this? Obviously you would like to be aware, yes?
MCCAIN: Well, I think the Intelligence Committee chairman and ranking member were told -- at least that's the media reports that I have -- but I think the American people ought to know if we're doing that kind of thing.
