"The Military Commissions Act of 2006 makes a mockery of the rule of law. This ominously broad definition of enemy combatants would mean that almost anyone who actively opposes the President or the government could be locked up indefinitely." — Bill Goodman, legal director, Center for Constitutional Rights

"This new version of the legislation grants the President frightening power to silence his critics. Habeas corpus is, like voting, one of the fundamental rights of democracy. The President's efforts to exercise the privilege of kings must be turned back, before the so-called 'war on terror' turns on our own citizens." — Vincent Warren, executive director, Center for Constitutional Rights
