Why did George Bush move toward Marshall Law in the US?

"In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law.

"President Bush seized this unprecedented power on the very same day that he signed the equally odious Military Commissions Act of 2006. In a sense, the two laws complement one another. One allows for torture and detention abroad, while the other seeks to enforce acquiescence at home, preparing to order the military onto the streets of America. "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 law can deploy National Guardsmen against "disorderly" citizenry - protesters, possibly, or those who object to forced vaccinations and quarantines in the event of a bio-terror event.

Is Patrick Leahy a conspiracy theorist?

He is trying this so he can stay president and he cant be voted out of office.he don't want anybody else in office to find out exactly what he has done to us,because of his selfish self...do you want him president forever ...NOT it wont be our military on our streets soon we will be just like Iraq ..People we have to fight back before Bush takes over......keep doing your research you ll no what I'm talking about

Go read a conspiracy theory book or something

You have no understanding of marshall law.

so he can create fear and panic in the population in order to keep control.

America is getting further and further down the rabbit hole...

The best conspiracies happen right in out in the open, however theres no conspiracy here.. these documents are now official government writ.

One would say these are the final steps to turn America from a democracy to a fascist nation

I think it is time for Big Government to officially declare the People to be enslaved, so the droolers who haven't figured it out yet will finally understand, and we can get on with the business of Revolution.

You mean you read a lot of crap. well such things happen when you listen to democrat politicians.
If you really want to find out the extent of presidential powers, look up Lincoln. He put congressmen and senators into jail and had military troops and cannon fire on anti-war protesters in New York
Of course, Lincoln was a Republican.

uhhh....I hate to be the one to tell you...but it's called ..."MARTIAL" law.....not "MARSHALL"

"In a stealth maneuver"? What? Did he ninja roll his way onto the senate floor when nobody was looking or something? Get a grip you flaming liberal. Go learn how our system of government works before you ask retarded questions. "Preparing to order the troops onto the streets"? Get a grip on reality and then come back and ask proper questions based in fact.

No, the authority he has is no more than most presidents have always had. it is merley being used by democrats as a tool to try and make people scared of laws that were always there

What uninformed bull.
The President has always had the right to declare Marshall Law.
Read a little history.

Your mistake is that you believe a Democrat.
Your second Mistake is that you believe Leahy.

you need a new hobby.

YOU ARE the govt. You have the power to control the govt, but you dont want it. You just want to point and cry. THAT is the power the American people want. Point and cry. Point and cry.
