White House demagoguery stating that Guantanamo detainees may walk our streets because of the recent United States Supreme Court decision of Boumediene v Bush (06-1195 pdf 650K) appears to be a confession that it had and has no right to lawfully hold the detainees.

That hardly seems to be the result of our United States Supreme Court who on numerous occasions, in judicial decision after judicial decision, warned the lawless and rogue administration that their law-free-zone was not constitutional.

It may be that the administration's rogue, lawless, and myopic law-free-zone means that it has inadvertently become in locus parenti for detainees—of course this is not quite the end game the administration had in mind².

Perhaps spokespuppet Dana Perino meant to say the White House has been hoisted by its own petard³—or maybe that comes in a "not my fault" book after being thrown overboard retiring.

Web: White House says ruling could free detainees in US

-----notes-----

1. Most prosecutors will assure White House spokespuppet Dana Perino she does not have to worry about Khalid Sheikh Mohammed walking around her neighborhood.

Even though Mohammed was tortured and evidence obtained by torture will be excluded from his non kangaroo trial, there is ample other evidence, prior to Khalid's American custody, that make it very unlikely that he will pay Perino a visit anytime soon.

2. Our rogue and lawless president envisioned a secret extra-judicial system whereby he designates some person an enemy combatant-->the designated enemy combatant appears, without counsel before a meaningless kangaroo kombat status review tribunal-->appears before a meaningless kangaroo military kommission-->sentence to prison or death, as a set of military officers determine-->disposed of no questions asked; no shit!

That our president is not on trial in both America and the International Court is both frightening and amazing!

3. One wonders whether United States Supreme Court Justices sometimes read various newspaper reports, with delectable delight and private chuckles.
