Nothing like throwing Eisentrager to the winds.  Kennedy's distinction between the two situations is well-nigh ridiculous.  Oh well, it was to be expected from Hamdan.

Maybe, but doesn't it also toss out the court's own jurisprudence from Hamdan?

I agree, but it's still the natural result... Tongue  Part of the problem with Hamdan, actually.
