I was very happy to hear this as well. Now we just have to see if the Bushies try to pull and Andrew Jackson. (The court has made its decision; now let them try to enforce it.)
What the decision means is, the gov'mint can go about business as usual if it so desires, but if the case comes up against the Supreme Court, the gov'mint will lose. Maybe that will make things better in the short run, maybe the officials in charge will decide there's still plenty of time to torture good information out of a prisoner.
Still. The country feels just a little bit more like America now.
