At least it was Congress actually passing a law stopping on rights as opposed to an executive order???

For example,

1. The Internment of 110,000 Japanese Americans by executive order 9066.

Supreme Court Justice Tom C. Clark, who represented the Department of Justice in the "relocation," writes in the Epilogue to this book:


The truth is -- as this deplorable experience proves -- that constitutions and laws are not sufficient of themselves...Despite the uneqivocal language of the Constitution of the United States that the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, and despite the Fifth Amendment's command that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law, both of these constitutional safeguards were denied by military action under Executive Order 9066...

2. Abraham Lincoln as one of his first acts of the Civil War suspended Habeas Corpus. He adhered to his decision to suspend Habeas Corpus in spite of the Supreme Court ruling against him(Merryman) and extended his executive powers.

I thought it was pretty obvious the triple question mark combined with a big grin was a dead give away the statement was in jest.
