Bush is Working To Keep You In Jail, No Questions Asked

Keith Olbermann reports on the Bush Administration's attempts to change the law to allow the suspension of Habeas Corpus in times other than periods of rebellion or invasion.

Um... isn't that in the CONSTITUTION, which the President is supposed protect and defend (and which he has sworn to do TWICE, at each of his swearing-in ceremonies)?

(For those of you unclear on the concept of Habeas Corpus, basically it's the right of any prisoner to request and receive a hearing/trial to question the legality of the imprisonment. More here.)
