Scalia, the Boumediene Decision, and the Infamous 30 Terrorist Recidivists

It's false.

Man, the right-wing seems to have a particularly hard time separating fact from fiction. I mean, it's a problem that no one is immune from, of course, but the wingers seem particularly prone to building policy on urban myths--welfare queens with Cadillacs and so forth.

Nice work, Fat Tony, nice work. I mean, it's no Bush v. Gore, but, seriously, who could top that?

What might also wonder why such recidivism, even were it true, would be at all relevant to the kind of strict constructionist jurisprudence which Scalia advocates.

Of course, spencer, you already know you're trying to find reason where there are only rationales. Scalia is an unprincipled authoritarian.
