On Appeal, Ememy Combatant Omar Khadr's Military Commission Reinstated   [Andy McCarthy]

I've been out of pocket for a couple of days, but I'm glad to say I told you so on this one.  Earlier this week, a military appeals court reinstated the commission trial against against alien enemy combatant Omar Khadr, murderer of an American soldier.  The case had been thrown out by a military judge in a decision which, though preposterous, was cheered by military commission critics.  As the Wall Street Journal editorialized yesterday, you may not have heard about it since, "in the media's current terror narrative, it's only worth celebrating when the Bush Administration's judicial rules are overturned."
