Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain today called the U.S. Supreme Court ruling allowing Guantanamo detainees to challenge their status in civilian courts "one of the worst I've ever seen."

McCain made his comments while traveling on his campaign bus to a town hall meeting at Burlington County College in Pemberton.

"These are not American citizens. They are enemy combatants," McCain said. "I think this is one of the biggest mistakes that's been made in terms of our ability to defend our nation in a long, long time."

He called Thursday's 5-4 ruling "a stunning reversal" of World War II precedents empowering the president, as commander in chief, to deal with enemy combatants.
