The Supreme Court Screws US Again.
It appears that the SCOTUS has ruled on Gitmo and they have decided “Unlawful Combatants” is no longer a valid word to describe terrorists. The SCOTUS has ruled that GITMO detainees should be allowed access to OUR system of justice as civilians. NOT MILITARY. in a 5-4 ruling The Court finished the fornication of America.
Justice Scalia’s dissent is worth reading
Today the Court warps our Constitution in a way that goes beyond the narrow issue of the reach of the Suspension Clause, invoking judicially brainstormed separation-of-powers principles to establish a manipulable “functional†test for the extraterritorial reach of habeas corpus (and, no doubt, for the extraterritorial reach of other Constitutional protections as well). It blatantly misdescribes [sic] important precedents, most conspicuously Justice Jackson’s opinion for the Court in Johnson v. Eisentrager. It breaks a chain of precedent as old as the common law that prohibits judicial inquiry into detentions of aliens abroad absent statutory authorization. And, most tragically, it sets our military commanders the impossible task of proving to a civilian court, under whatever standards this Court devises in the future, that evidence supports the confinement of each and every enemy prisoner.
The Nation will live to regret what the Court has done today. I dissent
Well at least Roberts and Scalia get it. I am sure the other two that understood the ramifications of their actions are as ashamed of the court as WE as a nation should be.
This is not about “Justice” being misused, or innocent civilians being sent to Gitmo for no reason, it is about folks that are trying to kill YOU and ME because we will not submit to Islam, because Israel will not surrender it’s land, and because we as a nation are at war with those that attacked us on Sept 11th 2001. We are at war with people not an army, we are at war with fanatics not soldiers of a country. We are fighting an ideology and those idiots that believe the pedophile Muhammad is the ONLY religious figure all others should be slaves to Islam.
NOW our country will be required to put these SLUGS on trial in civilian courts, with civilian jury’s and in front of LIBERAL judges.
I am thinking this is the ONLY reason I will vote for McCain in 08, the SCOTUS appointment Obama would make will be the MOST liberal at least with McCain they might be Somewhat less LIBERAL.

In the spirit of reaching across the aisle, we owe it to the Democrats to show their president the exact same kind of respect and loyalty that they have shown our recent Republican president.
