ANTILIFE, I take it that that's a teeny tiny yes from your insignificant mind, and that you do support the Bush administration's suit reversing almost three decades of executive-branch policy, asking the Supreme Court to eviscerate the Alien Tort Claims Act, asking for a new reading of a 215-year-old statute that would make it virtually impossible for human rights victims to sue.

If the court accepts these arguments, then torturers like Américo Peña-Irala would be able to travel freely in the United States. Deposed dictators like Ferdinand Marcos and brutal generals like Carlos Vides Casanova, who presided over human rights abuses in El Salvador in the 1980's, could come here and enjoy safe haven.
