Not one of them was cited beyond a line or two...

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

Just a few posts ago, you indicated that none were quoted at all.

YOU didn't quote any line from the court whatsoever that said even so much as a single word about habeas corpus. All you provided was a loosely relevant passage from an historian who provided a couple of one line quotes from decisions, not one of which mentioned habeas corpus either.

My original request to you was to quote the opinions themselves in which, per your own words, "The Court has ruled, in several cases, that the president -can- suspend the Writ."

In light of all this it is evident that (1) you did not answer my original request and (2) what you did post was not a passage from ANY decision but rather from an historian who includes a few brief excerpts, not one of which contains either the word "habeas" or the word "corpus."

Since you still refuse to post any decision itself that supports your previous claim, I will take that as a concession that you cannot support it with facts.
