He said the detaining of hundreds of men for nearly four years without revealing to the public who they were and why they were being held was "really an unprecedented action by the government" that clashed with the principles of democracy.

Being attacked by enemies at home and abroad in such a cut-throat fashion is kind of unprecedented too, huh, Mr. Schulz?

Heck, even the dogs are getting sued. Well, two of their handlers anyway.

Has the left no shame?

In this 1994 photo released by the U.S. Army, Sgt. Michael J. Smith is seen during practice at Fort Riley, Kan. Sgt. Smith faced an article 32 hearing at Fort Meade, Md., which ended Wednesday, July 27, 2005. The hearing will determine weather Smith and Sgt. Santos A. Cardona will face courts martial on charges in connection with of prisoner Abuse at Abu Ghraib Prison, in Baghdad. On Tuesday, witnesses testified that military dogs bit at least two detainees at the prison in Iraq, one severely enough torequire stitches. A defense lawyer told reporters the approval came from top officials as the Army tried to bring to Iraq some of the techniques that human-rights advocates have criticized at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

It's that Constitutional right to publicity. Haven't you consulted the emanations from the penumbrae lately?

Had WWII never happened it would 'almost' be unprecedented. And that's an ACLU fact.

No, it is not unprecedented. In war, it is not even unusual. Abraham Lincoln put the city leaders of Baltimore & their families in prison and suspended habeus corpus in the Civil War.....Franklin Roosevelt imprisoned thousands of US citizens of Japanese decent in WWII.

War is hell. Innocents get caught up in it and some die. We saw that on 9/11 when the terrorists attacked us.
