Several cases were cited in that excerpt from "Lincoln's Constitution".

Not one of them was cited beyond a line or two and none of those quotes contained the words "habeas" or "corpus." You claimed to have knowledge of a court case that explicitly said the president could suspend habeas corpus. If you have such knowledge, Walt, quote the case. Otherwise don't shoot your mouth off with claims that you cannot support.

Ha.

Show that old Taney didn't mean exactly what he said in Luther v. Borden.

This is all done. You are only going to look more and more ridiculous.

Just a few posts ago, you indicated that none were quoted at all. Can't you -ever- be honest?
