This American Life
The podcast won't be available for a week, and the website doesn't provide much detail on who was featured, and I was shopping for food when the statement was made so I wasn't focused on taking notes.
In any case, you should not be surprised that Bush has claimed he can do this and that the
US Supreme Court has said that he can, and it makes sense that McCain would say that the US Supreme Court has said that he would be able to hold any US citizen without the courts having any say. If he didn't say that, he would be attacked by the conservatives for being weak and anti-American. |
Why are you making accusations and then not offereing anything at all to support them?
Which Supreme Court cases said this? Because the one below doesn't say this at all.

The US government lost this case, so again, what case was it that McCain cited?
Lets see here, you can't come up with anything that says McCain actually said this and you can't come up with any Supreme Court case which says this either. Why should anyone believe you?
