And dismayed. And outraged. As Mike Malloy would say, it's astonishing. That's the word I can't help but think of when I try to get my mind around what is going on these days. It is simply astonishing. I don't think the average American would know what "habeas corpus" was. Such is the level of ignorance we have become accustomed to. Regarding the recent ruling: It actually makes no difference where a person is held. The only thing that matters is what rights a human being has--PERIOD. They could be held on the moon or on Saturn, and the same rights apply. Note that I say they "apply", not that they would be respected. Am I wrong? Isn't the entire Constitution based on the premise that individual rights come from nature, and aren't granted by government? The rights are inherent. The aren't subject to what piece of ground you happen to be standing on. No more will I say that "It's time for another tea party". We're in the middle of a tea party--with the mad hatter.
