Here’s The Reason For the Insane SC Ruling

Hey folks,


You see many wanted to know WHY the Supreme Court would rule in such a way that has NEVER been before, saying the President Bush had no authority for the Guantanamo military tribunals. They said that it violated the Geneva Conventions. This is just so far out there that even layman understood that Al-Qaida does not represent any one nation therefore they do NOT fall under the Geneva Conventions guidelines. If there was any question as to what was behind the INSANE Supreme Court ruling that said, in essence, prisoners of war and "Enemy Combatants" have "Rights" equal to US citizens, here it is.

Senior Democrats, seeking to capitalize on the courts ruling, called on Sunday for a broader review of whether President George W. Bush had overstepped his war powers. They say that this ruling opens the door for a closer look at complaints he had improperly bypassed Congress in other areas as well.

Of course you have the "new" attack, with the same players, in full force mode. Sen. Charles Schumer of New York hammering out letters and using phrases like Bush’s power being"infinite and unchecked by anybody" and seeking a review of "all their other arrogations of power." He also said, echoing Sen. Jack Reed a Rhode Island Democrat,"We're not only going to have to look at this issue, we're going to have to go back to other issues as well because this ruling undercuts some of the other things the president has done," he told NBC's "Meet the Press."

Sen. Reed said the Supreme Court decision had "opened up challenges" to some of the administration's anti-terrorism measures.

"This is something that I think that we're going to have to consider as members of Congress and also the administration has to consider," he told Fox News.

Others are behind closed doors as we speak trying to formulate their attack plans. Then you have the EXTREMELY funny statement by California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein on ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos, who warned Republicans they would "rue the day if they politicize this." LOL If THEY politicize this?

Sen. John McCain wants Congress to craft a new system for trying Guantanamo inmates. Their legal limbo has drawn international condemnation. He told ABC,

"All of us and the president has said he'd like to see Guantanamo shut down, but it's not Guantanamo itself, it's the status of these detainees," He said he wants and feels that Congress and the administration would reach agreement to "make sure that bad guys, are not released and those who deserve to be released will be."

Look folks, it is really simple. This is an election year. BOTH sides hope to seek political advantage on the national security issue as the midterm congressional elections in November continue to get ever so close.

Basically, this ruling could be overturned at anytime by congress and the President. But the President has already said he would work with Congress on new rules for trying Guantanamo prisoners but has insisted the ruling is not a wider rebuke of the president's policies.

It really is NOT the Bush Administration trying to politicize this, Sen. Feinstein. It is YOU and those on your side playing those games you lose so well. You will lose this one too.
