Finally, this editorial in today's NY Times ends with this quote from Justice O'Connor's opinion in Hamdi:
"It is during our most challenging and uncertain moments that our nation's commitment to due process is most severely tested," Justice O'Connor observed yesterday, "and it is in those times that we must preserve our commitment at home to the principles for which we fight abroad."Posted by Marcia Oddi at June 29, 2004 12:17 PM
