Government wants to use military as police in your yard

Stop sending these overpaid imps baskets of toiletries. They're not your friends, as far as anyone with a modicum of historical and political scientific ability knows.

They're so fast to approach Congress when it's their benefits, crap for a contractor they'll be hired by, and $100,000 officer salaries. They're strangely missing when it's the Constitution they "defend."

If they were your friends, I wouldn't be reading the left wing doing this because the military would have stopped it. Act quickly before you don't even have the words posse comitatus left to appeal to.

Did you or your family meet with the bin Ladens that they say attacked on 9/11 the morning that they did ? I think not. So why are you going to be subjected to this ?

You're in the midst of a soft coup being run by Bormann and Gehlen leftovers from World War II.

Wake up and write these fools in the next two days. You didn't attack on 9/11. Their financiers and unlawful, anti-Roman power families attacked.

...the Senate is gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans. The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself.

Senators need to hear from you, on whether you think your front yard is part of a “battlefield” and if any president can send the military anywhere in the world to imprison civilians without charge or trial.

The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president—and every future president — the power to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. Even Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) raised his concerns about the NDAA detention provisions during last night’s Republican debate. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself.

The worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial provision is in S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which will be on the Senate floor on Monday. The bill was drafted in secret by Sens. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) and passed in a closed-door committee meeting, without even a single hearing.

I know it sounds incredible. New powers to use the military worldwide, even within the United States? Hasn’t anyone told the Senate that Osama bin Laden is dead, that the president is pulling all of the combat troops out of Iraq and trying to figure out how to get combat troops out of Afghanistan too? And American citizens and people picked up on American or Canadian or British streets being sent to military prisons indefinitely without even being charged with a crime. Really? Does anyone think this is a good idea? And why now?
