The specific point being addressed had to do with chatter around the recent Supreme Court decisions on military tribunals. No one objects (as far as I know) to reading criminals their rights, but there's some (minor) question now as to what sort of treatment is appropriate in a war zone.
It might be worth reading the decision and the dissents if you're actually interested in the issue. (I did.)
