E.D. Kain for Forbes:
>If Obama does one thing for the remainder of his presidency let it be a veto of the National Defense Authorization Act – a law recently passed by the Senate currently which would place domestic terror investigations and interrogations into the hands of the military and which would open the door for trial-free, indefinite detention of anyone, including American citizens, so long as the government calls them terrorists.
I particularly like how [Wired’s Spencer Ackerman puts it](http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/12/senate-military-detention/):
>Here’s the best thing that can be said about the new detention powers the Senate has tucked into next year’s defense bill: They don’t force the military to detain American citizens indefinitely without a trial. They just let the military do that.
This is not a good thing. [Obama is poised to veto this](http://loyalopposition.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/30/president-obama-veto-the-defense-authorization-act/), but we should still be loud about wanting it vetoed.
