Habeas Nothingness

Everybody’s all hot and bothered about how the Dear Leader and the Dark Lord lost Boumediene v. Bush (pdf). As if it matters - here’s a comment I left at a few blogs when I should have been working:

Why all the excitement? Everybody knows that the Supreme Court has no jurisdiction over the Fourth Branch of government. No one will even get a hearing. Dick Cheney can keep torturing Pakistani cabdrivers to his heart’s content.

Seriously - does anyone think the administration will do anything different? Feh.

Yeah, as if the fucking Bush administration will lift a fucking finger to implement this decision. Cynical? After nearly eight years of this shit? Not at all. Nothing will change.
