Congress Threatened with Martial Law

Last month I posted about Dubya’s intent to deploy American military on American soil for potential use against Citizens for the first time in the history of our country. You can read it here. I have also linked a post from October 2006 that you can read here. The second post is the first time that I talked about the changing laws stripping us of our civil liberties and constitutional rights.

Now comes word of a Youtube video that purports to show that some congress members were threatened with the use of troops in the streets if they didn’t vote for the financial bailout bill, last week.

Contained in the report, which is posted on Alternet is an interview which paints a pretty chilling scenario of what could happen if Dubya takes it upon himself to impose martial law. A move that is perfectly legal because of laws pushed through Congress in the past couple of years. These laws include; The Military Commissions Act, Public Law 109-364, and The Patriot Act.

Don't think it can happen. Well, who would've thought that Wall Street would collapse or that we are actually facing another depression.

Think about it. Especially before you cast your vote for the next president of the United States. Who do you want in control of that red phone or the US Military at any time of the day..
