WASHINGTON — "The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that President Bush overstepped his authority in ordering military war crimes trials for Guantanamo Bay detainees, a rebuke to the administration and its aggressive anti-terror policies.
Justice John Paul Stevens wrote the opinion, which said the proposed trials were illegal under U.S. law and Geneva conventions."
I don't recall us signing a treaty with Osama bin Laden, so it's balderdash that the Geneva Convention was violated in any manner. Best to let the ambulance chasers handle the legal ramifications of this one. The should at least be good for something, eh?
More after we get additional news on the matter.
