Olbermann: The Day Habeas Corpus Died
By: SilentPatriot @ 8:14 PM - PDT
Today, 135 years to the day after the last American President (Ulysses S. Grant) suspended habeas corpus, President Bush signed into law the Military Commissions Act of 2006. At its worst, the legislation allows President Bush or Donald Rumsfeld to declare anyone — US citizen or not — an enemy combatant, lock them up and throw away the key without a chance to prove their innocence in a court of law. In other words, every thing the Founding Fathers fought the British empire to free themselves of was reversed and nullified with the stroke of a pen, all under the guise of the War on Terror.

Jonathan Turley joined Keith to talk about the law that Senator Feingold said would be seen as "a stain on our nation's history."

Turley: "People have no idea how significant this is. Really a time of shame this is for the American system.—The strange thing is that we have become sort of constitutional couch potatoes. The Congress just gave the President despotic powers and you could hear the yawn across the country as people turned to Dancing With the Stars. It's otherworldly..People clearly don't realize what a fundamental change it is about who we are as a country. What happened today changed us. And I'm not too sure we're gonna change back anytime soon."

4. Not that it was telling me anything I didn't know

but watching that segment and having Turley spell it out like that really drove home again the severity of the situation and keeps me wondering what in the hell if anything are we finally as a people going to do about it. What is it going to take? When Bush finally suspends elections and declares himself Emperor? All paths I can see that the future will take are horrible beyond words.

5. It's not over yet.

Both Turley and the second guest argued that if the citizens knew they too could be declared enemy combatants, they would rebel and if nothing else, it would take the steam out of the BushCo "victory."

Google news stories hardly mention any of this. One story says "mostly foreigners" but doesn't elaborate.

We need to spread this far and wide before the election, and before they have the chance to shut DU down.
