Habeas Corpus

I think that "... it tolls for thee..." is correct on all of his/her assupmtions towards the US national government about how we are torturing these people. Its hard to believe that the United States has stooped down the the terriorist level involving torture. We are suppose to be a country of civil liberties according to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. You make some very good points on how its not just our governments fault, but its our fault too. In the Bill of Rights we are also guranteed Due Process but we are not doing giving the prisoners that have been captured that right. Although I do agree with you I think that our country is doing everything in there power to make sure that another terriorist attack will not happen again. If other measures could be taken I think that our government would have taken the other measures instead of going to war the Middle East. The Habeas Corpus is bringing an individual in custody for the court to determine whether they are guilty or not.
