The Military Commissions Act may not be law afterall.
From the U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 7: Clause 2 "...If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law. "
According to the caller, it appears as if though his opinion was that the congress did adjourn 10 days before the president signed the bill. Meaning the Military Commissions Act would not be law, and Habeas Corpus is alive and well.
