Thanks to Avedon, Mike, Mike, Melissa, Lindsay, Zuzu, John, John, Ekzept, Caitlin and a miniscule rightwing blog that called it "Left Wing Hysteria", for linking to my morning post (and whoever put it on Redditt).

The word 'hysteria' always reminds me of the etymology and the medical history of the word - and the invention of the vibrator.

Sometimes you are paranoid, and sometimes they are really after you. I particularly like Archy's (the first of the "John" links) take.

the latest chill up and down my spine is a FindLaw commentary which suggests the Military Commissions Act ("MCA") is a "smackdown" of the Supreme Court and has been deliberately drawn to minimize if not eliminate judicial review, a la Gonzales, and at least make it difficult for any detainee to which the MCA is applicable to appeal or have a basis for appeal.

i don't know. i guess some interested third party can bring suit against the executive. a class action suit on behalf of the American people?
