San Francisco Chronicle "The Supreme Court took up its first challenge to President Bush's powers in executing the war on terror on Tuesday as it weighed whether the more than 600 foreigners held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have a right to plead their case before a judge," reports the Los Angeles Times. "And a majority of the justices sounded skeptical of the administration's claim that the president alone has control over the fate of these men." |
