Mr. Original Intent sure has a @^!%*ed-up notion of persuasive precedent.

I kept telling people who though there was no difference between Bush & Gore in 2000 to think about the Supreme Court. It's even more evident now, given Bush's appointments.

When I say it, most people think I'm referring to Roe. Roe is important, but there is much, much more at stake here.

I kept telling people . . .

I repeated the same mantra to one and all but I felt I was preaching to KNS Kommenters.

I have to admit a bit of confusion here. You want me to vote for a POTUS who would appoint justices like Kennedy?

Who appointed Kennedy again?

Ah, so you want me to vote for Reagan...

Heh. Except I think he's terminally term limited.

If this ruling by 5 activist Justices was so great, let's see how much Obama talks about it out on the campaign trail.....he won't utter a peep. People will be pissed to know that the terrorists that our military pick up on the battle field have been given the same rights as all of us. They'll be able to clog up our court system at taxpayer cost.

Very dangerous precedent..........We could just chop their heads off. That's their justice system.

We could just chop their heads off. That's their justice system.

I don't suppose it's necessary to point out the inconsistency in this line of thinking.

Anyway, if they were "picked up on the battle field" then they are POWs, and have a different set of rights, whether you like it or not.

Neal, when's the last time POW's had the right to challenge their captivity in our court system. That's what I mean.....unprecedented.

Hey Rach, chill out. I was making a point about head chopping. That's what they do. We now give them a day in court..............
