I object strenously to today's Supreme Court decision permitting the detainees to seek relief in Federal Court. And my objection is based less on the outcome than on the legal rationale the court employed to reach that decision. It was faulty.

And it was cowardly, because they reversed long-standing law without declaring that they were doing so. A real chicken**** decision.

We don't understand the courts ruling either. What a bunch of wusses. Lets just tie our countries hands and let terrorists kill a few "hundred thousand citizens". I guess three thousand wasn't shocking enough. Then if that isn't enough, maybe wiping out a million will shock them into letting our country do it's job protecting its citizens!

BTW,..this is the part that is REALLY bizarre. This Supreme Court has been a huge disappointment in a lot of their decisions. Instead of interpreting law, they are making law.

Let me fix this.

BTW,..this is the part that is REALLY bizarre. This Supreme Court has been a huge disappointment in a lot of their decisions recently. Instead of interpreting law, they are making law. They were far to ambiguous in the Pledge case too. They should have made a more concrete decision, IMHO.
