The ruling could have major implications for detainees at the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where many, like Padilla, have been deemed "enemy combatants." Judge J.

The ruling *will* have major implications for all Americans. It's very bad news for the Bill of Rights. You may want to refresh yourself on the dying document. Pay special attention to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments. http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/...cs/billeng.htm |

Her name appears right alongside the ACLU, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the NYCLU, the CLU of SC, and other mutant, traitorous leftie organizations. With Reno presiding over the Justice Dept through the 90's, it's no wonder why we were fighting an ineffective battle against terrorism before Bush took office. http://www.wiggin.com/db30/cgi-bin/p...%20Opinion.pdf |

Padilla was an enemy combatant. |

Infringe on the rights of one US citizen, infringe on the rights of all US citizens. If Padilla was an enemy combatant, charge him. In my country, a man is innocent *until* proven guilty. There's a country about 150 miles south of you, that disappears citizens. Perhaps, you would be more comfortable there. |

I'm quite comfortable here. But since you mention Cuba, imagine that *you* lived there and spoke out against the government like you do here. And you think that the US is infringing upon your rights... |

The requirements of the charge of "taking up arms" are vague and subjective, subject to the whims of the political party in power, who at present are Republicans, which party at present seems to have in office an overabundance of paranoid, narrow minded, greedy liars and a base of comparatively stupid people whipped into a fundamental religious and patriotic froth. Real US citizens have plenty to fear with people like you and them in power. Sam |

Exactly.
If a person has taken up arms against the government the charge in a criminal court is treason. Once you have proved your charge in open court you can subject a person to the penalties perscribed by law. Take a logical step here. All persons involved in the 9/11 attacks were Saudi citizens. So why are any Suadi nationals allowed any access to the US and why did the US government put troops into Suadi Arabia to defeat the terrorist organizations and promote a democratic society. ? Try which King is good friends with a US president and his oil buddies. |
