Habeas Corpus, R.I.P. (1215 - 2006)

The US already has its own gulag in the tropics (Guantanamo Bay). Now, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Gonzales et al have further adjusted the legal code to deal with anyone designated враг народа (that's pronounced: vrag naroda), aka "Enemy of the People".

No more habeas corpus.

Who'd have thought it?
