FIRST KELO, NOW HAMDAN: THE LEFTIES ON THE SCOTUS HAVE SCREWED US AGAIN:

... in the Kelo decision the Supreme Court diverged from centuries of precedent by declaring that cities could seize private property and turn it over to another private party, so long as the action was taken in the name of “economic development.” If there was even a possibility that the transfer would result in greater tax revenues, the seizure could be justified, the Court ruled.

In her dissent, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor blasted the decision: “Any property may now be taken for the benefit of another private party… The beneficiaries are likely to be those citizens with disproportionate influence and power in the political process, including large corporations and development firms.”

The decision had immediate and unsurprising results. According to a just-released report by the Institute for Justice, in the wake of Kelo, “local governments threatened eminent domain or condemned at least 5,783 homes, businesses, churches, and other properties so that they could be transferred to another private party.”
NOW - WITH HAMDAN - THE LEFTIES ON THE COURT HAVE JUST MADE IT HARDER FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO MAKE US SAFE FROM THE JIHADOMANIACS:
The ruling was by a 5-3 majority; Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito were the dissenters. The Chief Justice did not participate since he was one of the judges who decided the case in the D.C. Circuit.

Scalia's dissent accuses the majority of ignoring the plain language of Congress's enactment providing that:

[N]o court, justice, or judge shall have jurisdiction to hear or consider an application for a writ of habeas corpus filed by or on behalf of an alien detained by the Department of Defense at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Scalia further argues that the majority substitutes its own judgment as to "military necessity" for that of the executive branch.
THESE DECISIONS ARE AS SOUND AND AS GOOD FOR OUR NATION AS THE DRED SCOT DECISION WAS - IN OTHER WORDS: THEY ARE "DRED"-FUL DECISIONS... (PUN INTENDED: DREDFUL = DREADFUL).

AND THEY COME COURTESY OF THE LEFTIES ON THE COURT: SOUTER; KENNEDY; STEVENS, AND BREYER, GINSZBURG.

THEY HAVE EXTENDED RIGHTS NOT EVEN GUARANTEED TO UNIFORMED POW'S WHILE THE CONFLICT IS ON-GOING TO UN-UNIFORMED, NON-SIGNATORY PARTIES.

IF IT WASN'T SO SURREAL AND SO FRIGGIN' OUTRAGEOUS IT WOULD BE HILARIOUS.

THIS IS A DARK DAY FOR AMERICANS WHO WANT US TO WIN THE GWOT - A WAR AGAINST THE MOST VICIOUS AND BLOODTHIRSTY AND LAWLESS ENEMY WE HAVE EVER FACED.

THE MURDERERS OF KRISTIAN MENCHACA AND THOMAS TUCKER SHOULD NOT GET KIND OF TREATMENT THAT THE LEFT HAS ORDERED WE GIVE THEM.

THEY DESERVE WHAT PUTIN HAS PROMSED THEM FOR MURDERING BY DECAPATATION) THE FOUR RUSSIANS IN IRAQ: THEY DESERVE TO DIE.

KELO AND HAMDAN: NAMES THAT WILL REMAIN IN INFAMY - LIKE DRED SCOT.

HERE'S a MUST READ that spells it ALL OUT!
