Habeas Corpus is 792 years old today.

3. I take a slightly less parochial approach.
Habeas Corpus is alive and well in nations more enlightened than our own.

4. Habeas Corpus shall never die
Habeas Corpus is alive and well. The Military Commissions Act is dead.

6. The ghost of Habeas Corpus is 792 years old today. Like the
ghost of Marilyn Monroe is, like, 80 years old or something today.
