there's isn't a damn person in this thread (including me) that's read and understood the entire bill that was voted on, and yet you talk like you're fucking experts on the subject. if it was controversial enough to be "bye bye habeas corpus" it wouldn't have passed with a damn near 2/3s vote (65-34).

The text of the bill:

QUOTE
No court, justice, or judge shall have jurisdiction to hear or consider an application for a writ of habeas corpus filed by or on behalf of an alien detained by the United States who has been determined by the United States to have been properly detained as an enemy combatant or is awaiting such determination.


All Bush has to do to hold someone indefinately against their will is label them an enemy combatant and they're gone. I hope the Supreme Court does away with this one.
