Today is a good day for Habeas Corpus and the rule of law.
Posted 30 weeks 9 hours ago byToday the US Supreme Court voted ( 5 to 4 ) to grant terrorism suspects held since 6 years , in Guantanamo Bay without specific charges or trial, access to Federal Courts in accordance to Habeas Corpus.
Justice Kennedy was the swing vote on the court.
Of course the conservatives on the Court ( Including the two Pres. Bush's nominees, Justice Roberts and Alito)were dissent votes on the case.
Senator McCain's reaction to the vote was very much in line with the one of the Bush Administration.
