WITH NO HABEUS CORPUS, US HAS LOST GROUND.

As an American, this passage of the Detainee Bill for Prisoners, spells t-r-o-u-b-l-e for the rest of us.

Why?

Because it contains nothing which will allow a prisoner who is either imprisoned justly or unjustly in this war on terror to challenge his imprisonment in court.

Republicans claim all the right to habeus corpus will do is weigh down federal courts, just like Bush said that getting a warrant to spy on people would "take up too much time and paperwork".

Of course, Bush's followers are more than eager to allow this happen. But this bill has effectively put the world on notice that the US no longer abides by or cares about human rights.

Even the basic ones like having the right to challenge your own imprisonment in an equally unjust military tribunal.

However, if you think this bill only applies to terrorists, you might just want to re-think that again.

Cause now Bush can turn this bill on our own people. Think I'm joking?

Isn't Jose Padilla an American whom is accused of being a terrorist?

Gotcha!

Didn't see this one coming, now did you?
