WHAT ACT?
Acts have titles, when someone refuses to name the Act he is IMO a kook trying to fool stupid people who won't look up the language of the Act themselves.
Is he referring to "H. R. 591. An act relating to habeas corpus, and regulating judicial proceedings in certain cases"?
It reads: "...During the existance of this rebellion the president shall be, and is hereby, invested with authority to declare the suspension of the privilege of habeas corpus"
I have no idea what lunatic point he is trying to make about ( I assume) the consciption act "S. 511. An act for enrolling and calling out the national forces, and for other purposes".
Kook city IMO.
