In a dramatic development in the commissions case against Mohammad Jawad, Lt. Col. Darrel Vandeveld, the lead prosecutor, resigned because he said he does not believe he can ethically proceed with the case.

Well good. Conservatives can have a change of heart.
And thank you ACLU for helping us fight against the unpatriotic Bush/Cheney/Addington administration.
