Huge Day at the SCOTUS

The opinions from the High Court are coming fast and furious, with some good, some bad, and probably some ugly. I can't keep up, but if I'd could, I'd start with this overview of the decisions in the Hamdi and Padilla cases. Then I'd probably be pretty interested in these Miranda cases, too. Then I'd read about there being no presidential monopoly on war powers.

Nevermind. What I'm saying is, if I had time I'd just read everything on SCOTUSBlog. And there's more to come tomorrow.

It's kind of mind-boggling to realize how much American law can change in a few days thanks to a flurry of Supreme Court decisions. And these people are appointed for life. A little scary sometimes...
