(AP)
Bush suggests that Congress perform a ``thorough review'' of the
Reconstruction-era ``posse comitatus'' law that bars use of the military in
civilian law enforcement.

The document does not say in precisely which situations such a change might
apply, saying the ``threat of catastrophic terrorism'' makes it necessary to
``determine whether domestic preparedness and response efforts would benefit''
from military involvement.

All this is just acting out for the media dupes. This country has been
operating under a condition of "National Emergency" since March 9, 1933 when
FDR declared it. Senate report 92549, issued 1973, clearly states "since
1933 the United States has been in a state of declared national
emergency...A majority of people in the US have lived their entire lives
under emergency rule" Since that time there have been at least 475 federal
laws passed which give the president's office broad powers to act on this
STILL DECLARED state of emergency (every President since FDR has declined to
rescind FDR's original order. And only the acting Chief Executive has the
power to do so...) including sending the military ANYWHERE w/o public or
congressional approval, declare martial law domestically, restrict all forms
of travel, seize assets, communications...you get the picture.
So while some may live with the illusion that "Here it comes..." rest
assured, "it" was destroying freedoms long before any of us were (probably)
born........
