Supreme Court Redux.

The Wall Street Journal has a couple of very thoughtful pieces on SCOTUS's (Base10 love's that acronym) decision regarding the detained enemy combatants. First, the edit-heads point out that the court's ruling was not really a blow to Bush and in fact actually almost begged to have claimant's hearings conducted by military tribunals. Second, John Yoo has a cleverly titled piece interpreting the decision.

If one reads the decisions as a poke-in-the-ribs message to put up or shut up on holding trials, it appears that the Pentagon seems to have voted "put up."
