Thanks To Bush We Have Lost More Civil Liberties.

Padilla was appointed counsel on his behalf that filed a court motion in the 2nd federal district appeals court. But prior to his filing he was moved to SC which lies in the 4th district. Thus, the appeal did not have jurisdiction and was not heard. Thus, there has a been a motion in the 4th district to hear the case. Lawyers on Padilla's behalf have tried to bump this up to the Supreme court so that they can get an overarching remedy. Problem is that the USSC is now in recess and next term Padillas case may not fit on the docket. There is a good chance Padilla won't be able to have his case heard till 2007.

He's held in a military brig and thus isn't allowed direct access to council as outlined in the Joint Resolution - which Congress wrote. It is an unfortunate series of events, however, it is a result of the process of the court system (that has been in place for decades) not any political agenda.

Andrew: Danke. I try with the sigs. :)

Note:  The following is my position on the matter.  No personal attacks are intended, even if it pisses you off or seems directly aimed at you.

Yeah, because they are going to come after you and me.  Shut the hell up.  Grow the hell up.  No one's out to get you.  No one in the government probably even knows who the hell you are.  Or cares.  Or ever will.

Just mind your own business, be a good citizen and you won't have any problems.

If you're a terrorist screw the consitution.  I have a special amendment just for terrorists I'd propose:

-Terrorists are exempt from the entire consitution.

There you go.

Screw them, screw everyone associated with them, and screw anyone who cares about their rights. 

If the government says someone is a terrorist I don't care if it's true or not, I'm sure they have a good reason to detain them.  This isn't North Korea or a 3rd World Country.  You'll be fine.  I'll be fine.  Everyone who's cool will be fine.

If you have a problem with the way things are run go cry to mama.

Spoken like a true scholar. :monkey: :blink:

Once again, if you're not a terrorist, WHO CARES?

How do we arrive at labeling U.S. citizens as terrorists without Due Process?

I am over this.

wait! let me try.

In order to really appreciate this concern, you need to recognize the historical aspect of rights infringement. They don't all go away at once, but often gradually. One step in the wrong direction is a slippery slope. That's all I'm saying.

I'll pull the train on Nebor too. Its not gonna happen guys. This is not 1936 Belin. The world is a small place and the truth be known we all have too many freedoms. We frankly need some good ol' fashion opression. Were too stupid for our own good. Dont beleive me. Go to Orleans.
