SOME HENNESSEY FOR KENNEDY FROM TENNESSEE (or sacto, whatever)

A giant and glorious EAT DOGSHIT to the torturers and war-mongers in Washington who would seek to truncate the rights of humans, subvert the law both domestic and international, and further sacrifice the dignity and good faith of this country

Quoth the Times::
Justice Stevens declared flatly that "the military commission at issue lacks the power to proceed because its structure and procedure violate" both the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which governs the American military's legal system, and the Third Geneva Convention.The majority opinion rejected the administration's claims that the tribunals were justified both by President Bush's inherent powers as commander in chief and by the resolution passed by Congress authorizing the use of force after the Sept. 11. There is nothing in the resolution's legislative history "even hinting" that such an expansion of the president's powers was considered, he wrote.

Meanwhile, Justices Scalia, Thomas, and Alito continue to suck my ass.
