"Are You an Unlawful Combatant?"

[Eric J in MN]

John McCain sold out human rights.

By mcjoan of Daily Kos:

McCain says Bush gets to decide, and with habeus corpus now out the window, you don't get to go to court to challenge it. This is the compromise those principled, independent Republican Senators reached with Bush on who is an unlawful combatant:

The definition applies to foreigners living inside or outside the United States and does not rule out the possibility of designating a U.S. citizen as an unlawful combatant. It is broader than that in last week's version of the bill, which resulted from lengthy, closed-door negotiations between senior administration officials and dissident Republican senators. That version incorporated a definition backed by the Senate dissidents: those "engaged in hostilities against the United States."

Tell Congress not to weaken human rights.

Not to weaken habeus corpus (the right to judicial review of imprisonment.)

Contact Congress against the Torture-Military-Tribunals bill.

5. The Republicans the MSM called "Rebel Repbulicans..."

...(John McCain, Lindsay Graham, etc.) are just plain Republicans.

Human rights and the due process of law aren't their priorities.

It ain't fascism, until they knockdown your door and yell, "freeze unlawful combatant!"
