   From Reagan appointee Judge Wilkinson on the 4th Circuit:
   “The government is asserting a right to stash away residents of this country in foreign prisons without the semblance of due process that is the foundation of our constitutional order.
   Further, it claims in essence that because it has rid itself of custody that there is nothing that can be done.
   This should be shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear.”

     I'm old enough to remember when presidents used to send SEALs or Delta Force to get people out of foreign captivity.
