Very abbreviated CFR TITLE 44

Sorry just posting a link to a whole Law and then claiming your own OPINONS are "Verified" by that Law is NOT responding. It is intellectually dishonest. Please respond to the following questions. Provide a citation refering to a particualr page number and section IN the CFR to back up your contentions.

Freedom, I have to go mow my yard that thinks it is the rain forest. To anything that Info posts that continues to merely repost the incorrect analysis Info is placing on CFR, please respond by reposting the questions below and asking Info to ANSWER the questions.

I am going to bring this to your attention since their seems a unwillingness to ACTUALLY report the facts. There is all this blame being spun by supposed "Objective" Journalists at President Bush. Apparently the "News" media does not understand at all how the lines of authority work in this situation. President Bush is prevented by Federal Law, the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, form sending in the military to restore order. President Bush CANNOT send in the National Guard. HE has NO authority over it unless it is called to Federal Service THEN as part of the regular Army, he CANNOT deploy it in a domestic law enforcement role unless one of two things happen. The Governor of the Sate ASKS for it or the State Govt is in defiance of Federal Authority. In 1956 Eisenhower deployed US troops to Little Rock AR to end a State Govt open defiance of a Supreme Court ruling on Segregation. In New Orleans the Governor of Louisiana has STILL not asked for Regular Army troops or Marine. SHE has finally ordeedr a grand total of 300, THREE HUNDRED Armed National Guard troops to restore order. She, Governor Blanco, NOT President Bush has the authority to order in the Guard, ask other states to send Guards or ask the President for Regular troops. There is all this screaming "why is it taking so long, why does Bush DO something". He is. Exactly what the Fed do. Moving the resources in for all over the USA to help with the recover. The LOCAL and State authorities, the one SCREAMING loudest about Bush, are the REAL culprits here. They have been given BILLIONS in Federal Aid since 9-11 to prepare their 1st responders and develop their crises contingency plans. Plans that were suppose to address this VERY disaster. It is the city and State's responsibility to manage the saturation from the point of disaster until the Feds get there in about 72 hours. There IS a reason we have State and Local goverments you know. So what real objective journalists SHOULD be asking is "why did the City of New Orleans and the State of Lousiana performed so poorly? Why did they not follow their OWN disaster plan as published on the Citie's website. Why are all the Public Transit assets of the City of New Orleans sitting under water in neat tidy little rows instead of being used to evacuate the poor and disabled? I suspect if anyone ACTUALLY has the courage to do their journalistic JOB, they are NOT going to like what they find lurking under the surface. Just because the people at the local and state level have the politically correct Democrat party label is NO excuse for the "news medias" role in helping covering up the malfeasance that cost THOUSAND of New Orleans citizens their lives

You are still citing the WHOLE VOLUME! Is there anything in it to back up your assertions or not? I can't find it. Where is it? Show me.
