"The Nation will live to regret what the Court had done today,"

Is he a sensationalist, or are those monumental words?

Monumental words.

Scalia ain’t a sensationalist.

The individuals at the center of this discussion, under the internationally-recognized Laws of Land Warfare, could have legitimately been put up against a wall and executed.

Instead, they’re being awarded as-yet-undetermined privileges.

When [if any of us are still free and not either dead or in some Obama-run re-education camp], that sentence should be the equal to ‘A day that will live in infamy’.

In his dissent, Justice Roberts. when discussing detainee rights, said they need "further litigation to determine the content of their new habeas right". If the judiciary reads into the Great Writ rights such as, speedy trial, right to counsel, search and seizure, and interrogation exclusionary rules, then "The Nation will live to regret what the Court had done today," will be an understatement.
