Warfare Laws Don't Apply In Time Of War

War on terror ruling worries GOP lawmakers - 2 Jul 2006 at 5:33pm - WASHINGTON -- Two Republican senators said Sunday that Congress must rein in the Supreme Court ruling that international law applies to the Bush administration's conduct in the war on terror.

Does it seem odd to anyone besides me that those (like most GOP lawmakers) who want so badly for the "war on terror" to be perceived as an actual war for legal purposes are also the ones who want the least for laws governing warfare to have any force?
