It seem the neo-conservative Bush Administration is up to its old
tricks. If the Administration can't have its way regarding treatment of
prisoners or treatment of Americans, like reporters, whose loyalties
seem less than absolute in step with the Administration's agenda;
because of the guarantees granted by the constitution, and the Bush
Administration has not been able to destroy or weaken the Constitution
and Bill of Rights by Constitutional amendments; then the Administration
will just do a end run around the Constitution by enacting new law
legislatively, stripping US citizen of their constitutional rights.
This is a sad state of affairs.
