A recent diary by neoperiapt has called into question what I would call a consensus here at DKos that Alberto Gonzales, the current Attorney General of the United States, made an outrageous attack on our fundamental right to Habeas Corpus when he stated in testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, under oath, that Habeas was not a universal right of all Americans under our Constitution.
I will show below that our consensus is right, and Gonzales did make such an outrageous attack, and that he should continue to be called on it.
***NOTE to neoperiapt and his supporters: This is not a "call-out" diary, and the following is offered in the interest of fully-informed debate here in the community.
