5-4. Still standing

Guantanamo prisoners have a right for justice, ruled the Supreme Court. Habeas Corpus still means something in Bush's Amerika.
But that was a close call : 5-4.
And there were a lot of comments from both sides.
From Justice Anthony Kennedy, this sound and relevant comment : "Liberty and security can be reconciled and in our system they are reconciled within the framework of the law."
For Justice (?) Antonin Scalia, this ruling is an "incursion into military affairs".
And from the 4 Justices (?) who voted against the ruling (the same Scalia + Samuel A. Alito Jr, Clarence Thomas, and Chief Justice (?) John G. Roberts Jr, Dubya's latest pick), this written comment, a clear incursion into political affairs : "America is at war with radical Islamists"..
Amazing.
US voters should definitely make sure John McCain is not elected.
And the 5 last defensors of genuine Justice in their country should definitely watch for their health until next spring.

White blogule to the Republican parting - Great National Divide

The State of the Nation ? Just as I predicted before Dubya's landslide Nov 2004 victory : if he wins the Republican Party looses and is bound to implode.
"You're either with us or against us" : these famous November 2001 words are no more related to the so called "fight against terror". This is about a fight against democracy. Either you support the Bush system or you support the values that used to make America respected all over the world.
We shouldn't wait for the 2006 elections as the turning point. The Alito case must be the wake up time for the true democrats (from both the Dem and Rep sides).
And don't you think it's high time impeachment be considered ?
