WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court on Friday blocked a judge from opening immigration hearings for international terrorism suspects, granting the Bush administration's emergency request for a stay.

[...]
The intervention was the first by the court in a dispute arising from the government's response to the terror attacks. It preserves the government's effort to secretly detain foreigners swept up in the terrorism investigation.

To recap this: They have already ruled that those detained have no right to counsel. Now they have decided that the hearings will be closed to press and public. Does this sound like America to you?
