Demo Leaker Nancy Pelosi On Supreme Court Gitmo Decision
2006-06-29
Washington, D.C. – House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today following the United States Supreme Court decision that trying Guantanamo detainees before military commissions violates U.S. law and the Geneva Conventions:

“Today’s Supreme Court decision reaffirms the American ideal that all are entitled to the basic guarantees of our justice system. This is a triumph for the rule of law.

“The rights ofdue process are among our most cherished liberties, and today’s decision is a rebuke of the Bush Administration’s detainee policiesand a reminder of our responsibility to protect both the American people and our Constitutional rights. We cannot allow the values on which our country was founded to become a casualty in the war on terrorism.”

Any questions?

#8  The U.S. Constitution is for U.S. Citizens period. It tells the government what the extent of it's powers are period. I'm starting to think we're not always shooting the right nutjobs.

God! Why do you put so many worthless stupid f*king morons on the planet at the same time!?

#6  Tranzi Credo: Everyone should have full US citizen rights.

Taliban, al Qaeda, illegal combatants, illegal aliens, Olde Yuropeons, pretty much everybody - except those icky New Yurpeons. She'd like them to have the right to vote in US elections, especially.

#5  Â“The rights of due process are among our most cherished liberties . . ."

How about the "right to life" (and I'm not even talking in an abortion sense. I'm talking "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness" sense)? Seems pretty important to me. If these terrorist @ssclowns are set free, our lives could be in danger.

#3  Incontinence. Reid has already said he wants to proceed with a legislative work-around of the decision. Of course the grown-ups will have to weed out the stupidity his side of the aisle will try to insert, but at least he didn't pull this idiocy.
