The Supreme Court's landmark Hamdan decision was a big win for Northbrook native and 1987 Loyola Academy grad Neal Katyal, who argued the case in his first appearance before the high court.
Katyal wasn't a complete Supreme Court novice, however, having clerked for Justice Stephen Breyer.
Now teaching at Georgetown University law school, Katyal previously was a national security law advisor in the Justice Department and co-counsel to Vice President Al Gore in the 2000 Florida recount.
Katyal's co-counsel is Navy Lt. Cmdr. Charles Swift, backed up by lawyers from Seattle-based Perkins Coie LLP.

I'll save time for JD, RRD and the rest:
"Makes Real Good" ? He's aiding and abetting all terrorists. He's a commie. He's stupid. He's on Osama's payroll. He's Saddam's flunkie. He's responsible for 9-11. He's Monica's ex. He's Exhibit A showing why we should eliminate the Supreme Court and just let Harriet Meiers make all the decisions.

What a surprise: Al Gore's lawyer is now representing the terrorists.
