I'd Like To Address Two Issues To The Senate

First, Marcie has returned back to the NY Times debate by showing that those in the Congress seem to be doing a pretty good imitation of the Cowardly Lion before the Great Oz. The Senate can resolve this problem by simply amending what the House sends to them. If the House resolution to condemn the NY Times and the LA Times without naming either paper, then a senator should amend the resolution to insert the names.

Send a message to the Senate and call your senators to demand that one of them do it. 202-224-3121. Tell them to send a message to both of the Times cage-liners that this is unacceptable.

Secondly, on the heels of Hamdan, the Senate needs to get on legislation giving the president the tribunals he needs to use on the detainees at Gitmo. Both Houses of Congress need to jump on this issue immediately. A message needs to be sent to the Supreme Court that this is an Article I and Article II issue, not an Article III issue. The Congress has, as by Article I, Section 8, the power "To constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court." The president needs a definitive stance, from Congress. That's part of Justice Kennedy's gripe. His gripe goes further, and I'm not one to bore our readers. Go read it. .

This is a case revolving around separation of powers. The courts have nothing to do with this case, and that message needs to be dropped in the Supreme Court's lap.

Publius II
