I believe its about the US Citizens being detained and not Foreigners. They have international law for the foreigners but I could be wrong.:hmm:

The supreme court ruled otherwise. What the supreme court says goes. Unless congress tries something else of course.

You can have an opinion on the matter but you need to stop making it sound like fact.

Note that the Constitution does not GRANT the right of Habeas Corpus, it only states the situations in which it can be taken away. This is important, as the right of Habeas Corpus is a right that ALL people automatically have and don't need to be specifically granted, and have had since the days of the Magna Carta.

He and Cheney demand crowns be placed upon their royal heads.

All hail the King Bush and Vice-King Cheney.:rotfl:
