It's difficult to join a discussion that was never started.

I'm deeply upset that the DOD is choosing to not comply with the Supreme Court's ruling which said that Gitmo prisoners *must* have a federal hearing to determine their status. The DOD is unoffically giving the SCOTUS the finger by setting up DOD-based military tribunals, instead of following the mandate the SCOTUS delivered in Rasul v. Bush. I see this action by the DOD as another attempt by the executive branch to destroy checks and balances between the branches of the federal government.
