im missing the point here, so if someone helps a terror orginization they apply here, but you dont want them to? just cause they are a citizen? think of what the outcome really is

Well the point really is that the bill allows the term "unlawful enemy combatant" to be applied as those in power see fit. Of course no one in their right mind wants anyone providing material or physical support to terrorist organizations, but those definitions are ill defined and even more problematic when left up to the interpretaions of men in power. Since the terms laid out are vague and non-descript they can apply to almost anything...from protesting the war to rallying people around an anti-government mindset. Is it likely? We'll have to wait and see. But at the rate people are being labeled "unpatriotic" for questioning our motives for going to war or speaking out against the current administration, I think people are perfectly legitimized in fearing a bill that could lock them up covertly on the president's whim.
