Dealing with domestic emergencies such as Katrina haven’t normally required plans for merging the military with the police as far as I know.

This bill is obviously *taking advantage* of the controversies raised by Katrina. It was bad enough that they had Blackwater prowling around there with M4s rather than the state’s own citizens via the national guard. The whole point of the Guard is to avoid federal troops acting against the populace. Bush has weakened the guard and reserve and is replacing them with Federal troops and mercenaries.

Consider how much easier it is to order troops to suppress civilians when they are not their own neighbors.

Why doesn’t this freak the right wing out? Why so pro expanding government powers? I thought they eff up everything? So incompetent that they can’t even run a health care system. We want to reduce government to the size that we can drown it in a bathtub - then arm it to the teeth with the worlds largest military budget and remove those pesky quaint regulations on their conduct. Great idea.

A Most Informative article, many thanks.

I am an American.

I was born in America.

Both my parents were born in America.

My father’s parents were born in Italy, and came to America, in hopes that they, and their children would have a better, more free life, than they had at that time in Italy. (1), (2).

I am saddened when reading this article, and wonder what my father’s parents would of thought if they saw America becoming more and more like the country they left.

There is no Constitution, the Bill of Rights has been dismantled, at the desire and fulfillment of Vice President Dick Cheney who is still angry that his prior boss, disgraced and impeached President Richard Nixon, was unable to become the most powerful man in the world by usurping powers he and those in his administration believed, as one of the three branches of government, was given the right to be the most powerful by the Founding Fathers of America, which is inaccurate and President Bush’s administration has illegally stolen in recent years. (3), (4), (5).

The Democratic Majority, that has spit in the face of those who voted them into power on November 7th, 2006, is useless. They fooled those who voted for them, that if they became the Majority, they would make a difference and end the war in the Middle East.

Now we all know, they are just as much a weasely bunch as the Republicans.

The America I was taught about as a child, is far from the true America. I am well aware now, that the United States has been a Globalist-Capitalist-Imperialist power since the beginning. Which has drawn power-hungry people to fight to get into positions of power, so they can engulf themselves in this undeserved strength, so they watch the world tremble, as they bang their fists on their desks.

Now I am not saying all politicians are life-sucking leeches, but most are, and we, as the people, We, as the People, have created a culture that breeds the type of people that are drawn to bullying-type of behavior America has become known for around the world.

September 11th 2001, did not change the civilian’s of America for the “good”. All it did was, make a country willing to let the government have poor power over them.

Other countries of the world, as in most countries, are much older than America, and have had dictators, repression and up roars from the people, they have experienced mass movements that have made lasting changed.

Those of America have not lived long enough to see such changes, therefore not knowing what they are heading for and what they are allowing their government to do….legally.

Just as everything Hitler did, was LEGAL, everything America is being allowed to do to the civilians and to the world, is placing a precedent, will allow the government to keep doing what they are doing legally, while following the down-ward path, the slow descent into hell, much like how Rome fell.

It is not that Democracy has failed, it is that the people of America have allowed it to fail.

your life it is over mr and mrs american. by over i mean dead as a doornail, deader than a three week old corpse with a bullet in it. is that dead enough for you? let me give you for 411 as it was relayed to me by a certain military intellgence officer i happen to work for. jim jones was a good man, but somethihg happened one day. his boss asked him to do a certain thing,confused by the order, he refused. in his line of work you simply can’t refuse.what he has been ordered to do is to start a war, not just any old war but a thermonuclear war the idea is to provoke booth sides into luanching their missiles at each other by convincing both sdies fird at each other at the same time everyone here is confused and worried and taking sides. the missiles don’t see a threat while the pentagon guys are telling them the threat is staring them straight in the face.
