I am totally pissed off by this 5-3 ruling...Justice Kennedy sides with the liberals, while Chief Justice Roberts (properly) recuses himself. As a result, we have, in effect, given Geneva Convention protections to al Qaeda. I’ll bet Osama is laughing his a** off right now.
Time for President Bush to break out the Executive Order pen and publicly announce that THIS RULING WILL BE IGNORED.
UPDATE (1850 MST): After some extensive research into the issue, I’m going to change my view a slight bit. In lieu of Congress going back to the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 and specify that NO court at all may hear cases dealing with terrorists...then all Sailors, Soldiers, Airmen, and Marines (and the Coast Guard too!) who now encounter terrorists on the field of battle should not take prisoners at all. Simply KILL! THEM! ALL! ANNIHILATE THEM! and let GOD (not Allah) sort ‘em out.
