Guess what? This does not overshadow the Constitution! The fact is plain. This
guy is a Citizen, he was arrested on US Soil, he must be tried by the US Courts.
Heck we have one FOREIGN NATIONAL being tried by US LAW. Since
when does a foreign national have more rights than any US Citizen. The
Administration is nuts in this case.


Not so, this is very simple: Any citizen taking up arms against
the United States no longer has any rights as he has forfeited
them by his own act of treason. It is not a matter of the President
suspending "Habeous Corpus" for this person as this person has
suspended it for himself. His hope would be that the president
would allow this right to be restored to him. Do you really think
that president Bush will pardon this guy...would you want him to?

Really?!!!!! Ssupended it himself, did he....Did our OKC Bomber suspend his own "Habeas Corpus"? Did the world Trade Bombers suspend their own "Habeas Corpus"? Since you made this statement please show me the case law to back this up? Show me where the US Supreme Court has upheld this kind of decision by the EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT?
