Now that's an interesting statement to be coming from you, Walt, cause you sure don't apply it to The Lincoln's unconstitutional suspension of habeas corpus.

The Constitution nowhere says what the president may or may not do in regards to Habeas Corpus.

You neo-rebs are such hypocrites. Secession if permited because it is not explicitly forbibben. But suspension of the Writ (described as a privilege in the Constitution any way) is just the opposite. No fair-minded person will accept your interpretation.

It's just more-- "Boo-hoo-hoo! Mean old Lincoln kicked our butts!!"

Crap. Fat fingers. Should read "Secession -is- permitted....

The Constitution nowhere says what the president may or may not do in regards to Habeas Corpus.

Nowhere does it even remotely extend the right to suspend it to him. Therefore it is unreasonable to assume he has it. Try again.
