    I'm no fan of the Shrub, but this thread makes me yawn.

    And on the same day,with his new terrorist bill he managed to get rid of that annoying legal concept that's been kicking around for almost 800 years--habeas corpus.

    The law protects detainees from blatant abuses during questioning – such as rape, torture and “cruel and inhuman” treatment – but does not require that any of them be granted legal counsel. Also, it specifically bars detainees from filing habeas corpus petitions challenging their detentions in federal courts

    Olbermann does a good one on "The Murder of Habeas Corpus"
