Today's Supreme Court

Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a strongly worded dissent, saying the court's decision would "sorely hamper the president's ability to confront and defeat a new and deadly enemy."
The court's willingness, Thomas said, "to second-guess the determination of the political branches that these conspirators must be brought to justice is both unprecedented and dangerous."

I'd expect these words from a member of Congress, but a Supreme Court Justice? I'll have to read Thomas' dissent to see what legal standpont he's coming from, but this type of totally politically charged language from a Supreme Court Justice makes me want to hurl. Even with Roberts weighing in, the decision would have been the same (5-4, other than 5-3). It's good to see that the Supremes haven't totally gone off the ledge.

Here's more on this.
