Why not reserve your contempt for the persons actually responsible: Eric Holder and Obama? They are the ones who removed these perps from a perfectly legal wartime detainment regime....

One more time - no, they did not. This is a habeas petition case.

This is a habeas petition case.

Thanks. Got it. Up to speed now.

Still, there was a major difference here. Bush fought extension of habeas to detainees. Obama (first as a Senator, then as candidate) applauded it. 'Course, as president, "Just Words," arbitrarily fought extenstion of habeas to Bagram detainees in exactly the same circumstance as Gitmo detainees (i.e. brough there from third countries): Obama's Gitmo (WSJ APRIL 21, 2009).
