Just when the neo-cons think they're making progress in converting
America to a nation that will be more easily controlled (by neo-cons,
of course), some "activist judge" steps forward

You obviously didn't read the decision. The judge in question didn't try to
rewrite the law. In fact, he specifically said that granting the President
the power to detain a US citizen without due process is something that only
Congress could do...*not* activist judges.
