To: count me in
""The Constitution is absolute.""

Bravo Judge Coughenour. If any of you think that Judge Coughenour is a liberal then you don't understand what a Conservative is. The point the Judge is making with regards to the Democrats is valid. The Republicans are not going to voice objection. Even the most strident Republican Attorney’s are having a problem defending this policy of detention without due process. But very few are focused on the Constitutional implications. That alone should alarm everyone. Again this is easily solved. Allow the Military to try both Foreigners and Americans with regards to these cases.

"detention without due process"

What due process do you think Padilla has been denied? Please tell me!

I remind you: His habeas corpus petition is before a court right now.

Honestly, if someone would state a specific complaint about the Constitutionality of the handling of this case, I'd be very interested.
