From the Military Commissions Act of 2006:

[N]o court, justice, or judge shall have jurisdiction to hear or consider any claim or cause of action whatsoever, including any action pending on or filed after the date of the enactment of the Military Commissions Act of 2006, relating to the prosecution, trial, or judgment of a military commission under this chapter, including challenges to the lawfulness of procedures of military commissions under this chapter.

Even the Supreme Court can't say if it's legal? Wrong.

Any person subject to this chapter who commits an act intended to inflict severe or serious physical or mental pain or suffering (other than pain or suffering incidental to lawful sanctions), including serious physical abuse, upon another within his custody or control shall be punished...

(i) The term `serious physical pain or suffering' means bodily injury that involves--

(I) a substantial risk of death;

(II) extreme physical pain;

(III) a burn or physical disfigurement of a serious nature (other than cuts, abrasions, or bruises); or

(IV) significant loss or impairment of the function of a bodily member, organ, or mental faculty.

We can beat them until they're black and blue all over? Wrong.

We can cut them, as long as they don't think we're removing an arm? Wrong.

As long as we don't kill them, we can do whatever we want? Wrong.

And who does this apply to?

(c) Determination of Unlawful Enemy Combatant Status Dispositive-A finding, whether before, on, or after the date of the enactment of the Military Commissions Act of 2006, by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal or another competent tribunal established under the authority of the President or the Secretary of Defense that a person is an unlawful enemy combatant is dispositive for purposes of jurisdiction for trial by military commission under this chapter.

But what if they're not really enemy combatants? What if they're a U.S. Citizen who's been turned over to the military by someone trying to get them in trouble? How do they prove they're a citizen?

No court, justice, or judge shall have jurisdiction to hear or consider an application for a writ of habeas corpus filed by or on behalf of an alien detained by the United States who has been determined by the United States to have been properly detained as an enemy combatant or is awaiting such determination.

Oops.

Collins voted for this bill.

Allen voted against it.

Remind me again why her favorables are so high?
