4th Circuit & Padilla

I don't know who wrote this editorial, but it's totally wrong.

Contrast the tone of that editorial with this article, which simply lays out the facts. The judge in the case explained exactly why he ruled the way he did, and I happen to think any reasonable man would agree with his point of view.

More on the ruling.

Do you suppose Judge Luttig's attitude towards the administration changed when it became clear that he was no longer in the running for a Supreme Court post?

Are you suggesting that the Washington Post is correct in calling the ruling "mischievous"?

I don't know that i would use that word, but it is certainly interesting coming from a judge that the Bush administration probably thought they had in their pocket.
