Obama legal team wants to limit defendants' rights

By MARK SHERMAN
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Obama administration is asking the Supreme Court to overrule long-standing law that stops police from initiating questions unless a defendant's lawyer is present, another stark example of the White House seeking to limit rather than expand rights.

The administration's action - and several others - have disappointed civil rights and civil liberties groups that expected President Barack Obama to reverse the policies of his Republican predecessor, George W. Bush, after the Democrat's call for change during the 2008 campaign.

Since taking office, Obama has drawn criticism for backing the continued imprisonment of enemy combatants in Afghanistan without trial, invoking the "state secrets" privilege to avoid releasing information in lawsuits and limiting the rights of prisoners to test genetic evidence used to convict them.

The case at issue is Michigan v. Jackson, in which the Supreme Court said in 1986 that police may not initiate questioning of a defendant who has a lawyer or has asked for one, unless the attorney is present. The decision applies even to defendants who agree to talk to the authorities without their lawyers.

Anything police learn through such questioning cannot be used against the defendant at trial. The opinion was written by Justice John Paul Stevens, the only current justice who was on the court at the time.

The justices could decide as early as Friday whether they want to hear arguments on the issue as they wrestle with an ongoing case from Louisiana that involves police questioning of an indigent defendant that led to a murder confession and a death sentence.

The Justice Department, in a brief signed by Solicitor General Elena Kagan, said the 1986 decision "serves no real purpose" and offers only "meager benefits." The government said defendants who don't wish to talk to police don't have to and that officers must respect that decision. But it said there is no reason a defendant who wants to should not be able to respond to officers' questions.

At the same time, the administration acknowledges that the decision "only occasionally prevents federal prosecutors from obtaining appropriate convictions."

The administration's legal move is a reminder that Obama, who has moved from campaigning to governing, now speaks for federal prosecutors.

The administration's position assumes a level playing field, with equally savvy police and criminal suspects, lawyers on the other side of the case said. But the protection offered by the court in Stevens' 1986 opinion is especially important for vulnerable defendants, including the mentally and developmentally disabled, addicts, juveniles and the poor, the lawyers said.

"Your right to assistance of counsel can be undermined if somebody on the other side who is much more sophisticated than you are comes and talks to you and asks for information," said Sidney Rosdeitcher, a New York lawyer who advises the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University.

Stephen B. Bright, a lawyer who works with poor defendants at the Southern Center for Human Rights in Atlanta, said the administration's position "is disappointing, no question."

Bright said that poor defendants' constitutional right to a lawyer, spelled out by the high court in 1965, has been neglected in recent years. "I would hope that this administration would be doing things to shore up the right to counsel for poor people accused of crimes," said Bright, whose group joined with the Brennan Center and other rights organizations in a court filing opposing the administration's position.

Former Deputy Attorney General Larry Thompson and former FBI Director William Sessions are among 19 one-time judges and prosecutors urging the court to leave the decision in place because it has been incorporated into routine police practice and establishes a rule on interrogations that is easy to follow.

Eleven states also are echoing the administration's call to overrule the 1986 case.

Justice Samuel Alito first raised the prospect of overruling the decision at arguments in January over the rights of Jesse Montejo, the Louisiana death row inmate.

Montejo's lawyer, Donald Verrilli, urged the court not to do it. Since then, Verrilli has joined the Justice Department, but played no role in the department's brief.

Just heard today, that by next week, we will have a national health care program. They're "back-dooring" it through the house and senate, with little more than 35 hours of discussion. There's a loophole involving the "budget", that allows the senate to vote on it without confering with the republican party. It only requires a straight-out majority, which the dems easily have. Adolph Fidel Obama will be on "prime-time" TV next Wednesday night on all network stations, to discuss his many accomplishments during his first 100 days in office.

"Health-care" makes up 17% of our economy, and soon, uncle Barry and his gestapo will control it. This is friggin' scary, man. I've been around longer than most board members, and seen a lot of bad shit come out of D.C.

I'm going to have to agree with this one 100%. Although I can't say I remember LBJ.

By everything he is doing, it seems like he wants America to revolt, so he can impose martial law on the nation. And this would be a bad thing, considering the laws in place at the moment.

Summary:
With all the laws in place at the moment, if martial law was imposed, all powers of the government would transfer to F.E.M.A. Which by the was has no elected officials. And congress can not even review the situation for 6 months.

My question to you.

If , a megalomaniac was is in charge of F.E.M.A. at the time martial law is imposed.

Do you thing congress will exist 6 months later?

These laws really need to be changes. And the only way to do this is to vote out every one in congress in 2010, and demand that these presidential orders, and laws are changed.

It this does not happen......... I do fear the worst.


As far as national health care? You mean like Mexico? Where people are dieing from the flu? And our private health care has recorded none? Hummmmmm.... Yeah, I want that! Where are headed for hell in a hand bad.

The term you're looking for is called "reconciliation." Congressman Paul Ryan of the House Budget Committee was on the Radio Friday. He wasn't even notified there was a meeting and heard about this crap on the news.

The DEMS want this done before Wednesday so Obama can claim in as a victory during his first 100 days... Its unreal what these idiots are doing to this country...

Oh yeah, bankrupt systems, care structures based on how much 'paying into the system' someone has left in them - ie, a 20 yr old kid will get care over a 50 yr old, regardless of severity, outrageous taxes to pay for a broken system, level after level of bureaucratic mess and severely diminished quality of life.

Is this why people from Canada cross into our borders when they get sick? They know it will take weeks to see a professional, heck if you get diagnosed with cancer it takes months possibly years to get treated. From first hand experience talking with our patients from Canada, Germany, UK I would say these systems have failed.

Vertnut
05-05-2009, 03:03 PM
Canada, England, France, among other countries with "socialized medicine" programs, are starting to "disqualify" some cancer patient's because the "government" feels that the treatment is too expensive to keep them alive. So now, those governments' politicians get to choose who lives and dies. You like that? Drug companies in those countries do not have the funds to continue research and development on cures for illnesses, because they can't make money on prescriptions due to those governments dictating prices. You like that? Typical cancers (breast, colon, stomach, etc.) have up to a 30% higher mortality rate in a "socialized" program, due to the waiting period to see a doctor, and the fact that they don't have the drugs available to them. You like that? Man, this is easy...

Son...you're a dumbass, but I'm guessing you already know that. Canada considers gall bladder surgery, an "elective" surgery, or in other words, non life-threatening. Hernia's are considered the same. Speaking from experience, I almost died from a ruptured hernia, and had it not been for a quick response from a surgeon at Methodist Hospital, it could have been dicey for me.

I do well and don't live poor, but I also haven't been saddled with the cost of medical care for those unwilling to work or pay for their own insurance. That could change.

And for me it comes down to choice. I should be required by law to pay $500 a month for government health care or face jail time/fines.

It is yet another tax.

I have friends in the UK and Canada as well. The one in the UK says the BEST part of his executive benefit package is private health care. Not the money. Not the perks. But being able to pick his own doctor and be reasonably sure he will get appropriate medical care.

The ones in Canada come here and stand in line at our county hospitals and claim they are US citizens who lost their identification, so they can get in to see the doctor sometime within the first month of getting sick.

C02 IS NOT A POLLUTANT. WATER VAPOR IS THE MAIN FACTOR IN GLOBAL WARMING.
Why do you liberals ignore this fact??? How can you believe that what we exhale is a pollutant?

Dude, you're just a bounty hunter. What do you know? LOL

all of the currency out there was produced in the same fashion, out of thin air. none of it is backed by anything, it has no value. all money is debt as it is owed to someone, somewhere. so you think these forms of energy production are not capable of producing power needed?

Controlled printing of said money keeps away inflation. We're about to pass go without collecting $200.



I was badass at that game. I bet I can beat Obama (if he doesn't print his own during the game).

Exactly.

I'm just tired of coming to these threads, expecting substance, and finding none. I'm tried of hearing these moderate and liberal lies and no one standing up to them. I figure if no one else will, it might as well be me.

Carbon Dioxide: least of concerns. what about carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, mercury?

We don't have enough of these technologies??? Coal is only responsible for about 60% of our energy production.

money is given its value by how much is in circulation yes??? so how is inflation being fixed by more inflation??

Seriouly? You know if you burn coal at a high enough temperature, it won't do shit to the atmosphere, right?

I've worked with HAZWASTE incinerators before and some of the crap that gets torched in there is KILLER, but burned hot enough... poof!

Look up the physical and chemical property changes of substances at certain temperatures. You can do it with ANY substance.

quite enjoyable way to go actually. I don't need gods word to be a good human being. keep the judgement coming since you seem to think thats your job. some would say it is sad that you need religion to have a reason on being and a doctrine on how to behave. to each his own and i don't judge people on their views. you are confined to what you know as your comfort zone and anything outside of that is just blasphemous? have fun disliking people because they see things differently than you. peace and love.

Wrong. You judged Denny as a Christian and the way that you think he should live based on a book that you confessed doesn't apply to you.

We all have our ways of living and just because one is a Christian doesn't mean he isn't human and suffer the same desires and traps as other humans.

Pretty much. I know the Japanese play game shows like this with water. It would only stand to reason that undereducated flaming liberals do it with baby gravy.
