Scariest thing you can read this Halloween
This is possibly the scariest thing that you will read this Halloween: Bush just signed a provision which will remove any limits over military involvement in domestic law enforcement effectively allowing him to declare martial law at any time and for any reason.
In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which (…) will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law. It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President’s ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C.331 -335) has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C.1385), helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush is seeking to undo those prohibitions.
Step by step we are getting closer and closer to becoming a totalitarian fascist state. We really need to get these idiots out of the government. Come on people - vote Democrat. Elect some people who can start fixing up this mess. Stop this descent into madness now.
Oh, and if your district is using diebold machines just do the absentee ballot instead - the machines in swing states are bound to be rigged. After all it only takes 20-30 seconds to flash the firmware of that thing.
