And do they get it or will the government just ignore the supreme court?
This is the last I will be contributing to this misbegotten thread. The Supreme Court gets involved only rarely, but when they do, they settle the argument with the finality of a nuclear strike. Consider the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005, which Congress passed with enthusiastic support from the Bush Administration. This law claimed that it had the right to strip the Supreme Court of jurisdiction to hear any challenges to the Act. The Court was not amused and in a 5-3 decision threw the entire Guantanamo Bay military commissions structure out on its ear -- to hell with what Congress and the President wanted! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamdan_v._Rumsfeld I could literally list *dozens* of cases where the Supreme Court told Congress and the President "no" on subjects where Congress and the President insisted they would only take "yes" for an answer. In each case that I'm aware of, the Supreme Court won the argument handily. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
