Quote of the Day

“The court has not reached this conclusion lightly. It is acutely aware of the perilous nature of the world in which we live. But the Constitution is the rock upon which our nation rests. We must follow it not when it is convenient, but when fear and danger beckon in a different direction.” — Judge Lewis A. Kaplan, excluding testimony extracted under torture from the trial of a Guantanamo Bay detainee and accused terrorist.
