Dead, though we plainly differ on the treatment of renegades during war- or "citizen enemy combatants" to use the PC phrase- I am concerned that their Constitutionally guaranteed petition for habeas corpus get a fair hearing. As Hamdi and Padilla's petitions go through the courts there is a dispute over how much proof the courts can require of the military to back up their designations. I would support congress passing legislation that addressed that issue- especially for those captured on US soil.

Sounds like your position has moderated a little in the last few days.

Good.

No, evidence of my concern for their Habeas Corpus rights can be found on previous posts of mine.

If you now admit that Hamdi and Padilla are getting there Habeas Corpus rights I guess you have learned something.
That's good.
