A terrific post at TalkLeft, discussing a Red Cross report that--if the charges contained within it are ultimately proven to be true--would mean that war crimes were committed at Guantanamo. One.
Anderson v. King Sims--the case discussed by Dave below--can be read in its entirety here. It's actually worth reading. It's lucid and relatively short. Progressives should familiarize themselves with this and.

One often hears from reactionaries that...
One of the most amusing pathologies of wingnut cranks is their unyielding conviction that Hillary Clinton would be the Democratic nominee in 2004, despite the facts that 1)she repeatedly said.
