POLITICS - The Supreme Court on Guantanamo

Of course this is the big story of the day (6/29/2006).

"High court blocks Gitmo military tribunals" by Bill Mears, CNN

"In undertaking to try Hamdan and subject him to criminal punishment, the executive [Bush] is bound to comply with the rule of law that prevails in this jurisdiction," Stevens wrote.


But what Stevens and the SC do not understand is King George doesn't have to comply with law. With a stroke of a pen, or Executive Order, he decrees law. Congress and the laws it passes, and our Constitution, are just window dressing. Sarcasm-off

Not hardly! Note that if Roberts had been allowed to vote, he still would be on the loosing side.
