Run for the hills, the terrorists are trying to attack our freedom… well not quite, it’s not terrorists, it’s just George W. Bush. He has signed a bill which will allow him to declare martial law and deploy US troops on US soil to supress public disorder.

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. Remember, the term for putting an area under military law enforcement control is precise; the term is “martial law.”

I bet Osama’s laughing his ass off. We seem to be doing all his work for him.
