RICHMOND, Virginia (CNN) -- A federal appeals court Wednesday ruled President Bush has the authority to designate U.S. citizens as "enemy combatants" and detain them in military custody if they are deemed a threat to national security.

This is PURE EVIL.
How can anyone not understand this?
You can just make people unpersons? With no Geneva Convention rights? With no rights under US law? You don't think this is a FVCKING BAD IDEA?

Oh, but it's ok, it's not like they torture the people they detain or anything.

How can anyone vote for this government? Why isn't it trivial to campaign against them? I don't understand.
