The only thing that bothers me about this entire mess...the guy was a US citizen...guaranteed various rights from the start...with no exceptions that can waivered or tossed out from the constitution. The delay in the court case...the solitary confinement...all lead the case into appeals court where we can guess that he will walk free within twelve months. The Bush dimwits handled this case entirely wrong from the start and basically tossed the constitution out the front door...which makes me wonder what other things they wouldn’t want to go by.

And before folks jump on me about the seriousness of the case...I am retired AF...who can remember a period around 1990 which the AF made a big deal about the constitution and had thousands of posters and information packets pumped out to teach its members about constitutional rights. I’m like alot of those guys who remember all of that...and kinda wonder where these Bush exceptions really come from? The guy was in the wrong and it should have been handled properly from the start...but it never was. Now I’m wondering if there was something else about Padilla that they never spoke about...and this is all a game in the first place.

Bush is a globalist. No Nation's Constitution or laws will stand in the way of Bush's daddy's "New World Order."

End of story!

I agree with you. I found some info as I was looking on another FR thread which explained the sensory deprivation Padilla was subjected to which, basically, caused severe psychological damage. I hate to say it, but there are serious grounds for appeal.
