"From the beginning of this Nation, a man can walk upright, no matter who he is, or who she is. He can walk upright and meet his friend -- or his enemy; and he does not fear that because that enemy may be in a position of great power that he can be suddenly thrown in jail to rot there with-out charges and with no recourse to justice. We have the habeas corpus act, and we respect it."
Dwight D. Eisenhower
"The Constitution doesn't say every individual in the United States or citizen is hereby granted or assured the right of habeas corpus."
Alberto Gonzales
Attorney General
