The ruling could have major implications for detainees at the U.S. naval
base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where many, like Padilla, have been deemed
"enemy combatants." Judge J. Michael Luttig wrote the decision for the
three-member panel in Richmond, Va. He is considered to be on President
Bush's short list of candidates to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court.

The ruling *will* have major implications for all Americans. It's very
bad news for the Bill of Rights. You may want to refresh yourself on the
dying document. Pay special attention to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.

This ruling did nothing to infringe on the rights of US citizens who don't
take up arms against this country. Padilla was an enemy combatant.
