You bet it did. And it will continue until the U.S. has mopped up terrorists world wide. ''What is the law which governs an army invading an enemy's country?'' the Court asked in Dow v. Johnson.1535 ''It is not the civil law of the invaded country; it is not the civil law of the conquering country; it is military law--the law of war--and its su premacy for the protection of the officers and soldiers of the army, when in service in the field in the enemy's country, is as essential to the efficiency of the army as the supremacy of the civil law at home, and, in time of peace, is essential to the preservation of liberty.'' caselaw.lp.findlaw.com

My nomination for stupid whining demolib pinhead posting of the day from the Jackass Thread..... To:Kenneth E. Phillipps who wrote (1218) From: Mephisto Thursday, Nov 29, 2001 1:21 PM Respond to of 1222 "Why is it that Republicans like Reagan, Bush Sr, and Bush Jr always have big deficits. Seems like they need some lessons on how to manage the economy. Remember all the hot air in the Bush state of the union message about how we could afford the tax cut because of the surpluses. Federal deficit seen through 2005 " Reagan was a tv actor and Bush was a drunk who drank his way through college. Potential Presidents should have to take a test that would demonstrate their knowledge of the law, Constitution and history. Other subjects may have to be included. Everyone else in the country has to take tests so why should potential Presidents be excluded? I would be very surprised if Bush could pass the test required to become an American citizen. Ditto for Reagan. This country needs intelligent Presidents who have a sound mind and excellent education. Until that happens, I believe the standards of Americans citizens will continue to decline and we will find ourselves at war whether real or in the President's mind.
