People are coming out of the strangest places lately to criticize President Bush. I don't know why they waited this long, but I'm glad they're taking the chance to voice their opinions. In this case, several military lawyers have filed a brief with the Supreme Court arguing that the White Houses refusal to allow the Guantanamo detainees any access to civilian courts is reprehensible and challenges of the rule of law in our country. Other nations have been arguing this for a year now, but rarely does criticism of the commander-in-chief come from military subordinates. These lawyers are trying to best represent their clients; but in truth, they are representing all of us who fear being detained indefinately, told nothing of our crimes, and ignored by the court system.
