In ordinary times one might think this was a good thing, but with the new Bush-loaded Supreme Court, there is probably little reason to think the outcome will be protection of our constitutional rights. This is an issue that should evoke immediate response from all patriotic Americans. I'm sure many avenues will open for public discussion. Inform yourself. Understand the importance of habeas corpus. Speak out when you can. This is a ruling that will not just affect terrorists. It will affect all of us.
Don't let the Supreme Court take away more of our rights.
