Oh, Lord help us.

The Democrats are going to let another terrorist attack happen if they keep giving all these rights to terrorists.

This is the kind of thing that the Republicans need to keep alive on the Senate floor forever. Keep it on the front page. Keep it on TV.

I can just imagine some of the few remaining German and Japanese WWII commanders seeing this and thinking " if only we had people like this helping our side back then, things might have turned out different."

Great. Didn't take long for the Dems to begin self destructing. Maybe they'll start some gays in the military and gun control and tax hike talk soon. This may be a fun two years after all.

They don't necessarily have the vote for it. I suspect Lieberman and perhaps Webb will not go for it. The 3 military guys who made the deal (McCain, Graham, Warner) will not agree. And the Maine Twins are less likely to bring out something that has been decided recently.

They want rights for our enemies, that should have been shot dead long ago, and meanwhile persecute eight of our Marines at Camp Pendleton?

Can we ever get this government turned right-side-up and frontward again?

This has .00000001% chance of getting 60 votes for cloture and if some whacked Senators managed to get it through it has 0% chance the President will sign.

Patrick Leahy is, as usual, dumb as a post about constitutional law. Habeas corpus has NOT been abolished. It is as alive and well as well the US Supreme Court ruled UNANIMOUSLY in 1942 that it existed for the eight German saboteurs convicted of planning bombings, and six were sentenced to death, in the Quirin case.

Habeas corpus was the basis on which the Court reviewed, and then approved, the military tribunals used for those trials. Now that Congress has acted, the same applies to the Gitmo detainees or any other illegal combatants. The regular US courts still have habeas corpus review at the Supreme Court level, but ONLY to make sure that the established procedures of the new military tribunals have been followed, and that's it.

Leahy is either too dumb, or too biased, to realize this. Either way, he is wrong, and any attempt by the new Congress to change the current law on illegal combatants will (or at least should be) blocked by a veto from President Bush.

I think that he should.The American people, through their votes, have indicated that is what they want.They [the terrorists]are only misguided and live in poverty.If we show them that we love them they will stop wanting to kill us.

We have begun the process of showing them how much we love them by getting rid of those evil hate-filled Republicans.
