Congress passed a bill, the Military Commissions Act of 2006 on September 29, 2006 and Bush kept it in his pocket for 10 days while Congress remained in session and it became law without Bush's signature. Bush is gutless as he will use the law but will hide behind the fact the law does not bear his signature. The Act is blatantly unconsitutional in that it circumvents the Writ of Habeas Corpus which is only allowed to be abrogated by Congress if the country is invaded or in rebellion. Has the US been invaded or is there a rebellion in the US? Hopefully, a challenge in court will quickly strike down this unconstitutional law!
